What a lovely community with much tradition and history to define it. The coming together of like minded individuals in their villages, states, and our nation at large will either break (if denied) or bring us together as but one nation in a world of nations in trouble from cascading crises, the most damaging of course the failure to address climate mitigation while our leaders in Congress joust about impeaching Biden for which there is no evidence of wrongdoing

while he goes about his business of governance daily almost exclusively addressing his many accomplishments thus far in his presidency in addition to looming events of the day. The saddest thing of all of course is the media’s role in providing fuel to Trump’s mugshot (absurd) and 24/7 coverage of the ongoing trials, the noise growing louder by the day appeasing the CEO’s of the media outlets need for ratings and profit above all else. The coming 14 months in the country we landed in at birth (excepting those dreaming immigrants of course) are going to be full of grandstanding and outrageous stunts by the parties to control election 2024, the defining moment for democracy going forward versus fascism. There will be no peace for the weary nor comfort in community. I decided on a brief outing to the doctor today to declare my colors and exhibit courage, wearing my treasured Biden tee shirt. My kind, Black gentleman caretaker was actually concerned for the quality of healthcare I might receive taking a bold stand in a blood red Republican State. Damn the torpedoes; the war for Democracy reigns.❤️🇺🇸🌎🕊️

Superb storytelling by the wonderful wordsmith yet again. Biggs was sentenced to 17 years today. Whether a 100 year old oak tree or a potato barge, there are no coincidences. 🌻
