Imogen is a delightfully rich, yellow rose from David Austin with delicately frilled petals with pale edges around a classic button eye. Her medium-sized blossoms are produced in clusters of 3-6 with a gentle apple-scented fragrance. Imogen only improves with age, from Rebecca Naumanns garden.

Congratulations to longtime Santa Fe resident Arthur Sze, named the 25th U.S. poet laureate by the Library of Congress. His award-winning poetry, rooted in nature and the spirit of the southwest, reminds us of the power of poetry to connect, reflect and inspire. New Mexico could not be prouder.

Graphic from the Office of Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham featuring a screenshot of an NPR article dated September 15, 2025, by Andrew Limbong, titled “Arthur Sze named 25th U.S. poet laureate.”

It’s still not too late to start wearing a mask.

Covid is surging.

Hundreds of kids are in quarantine for measles.

Public health has been gutted and healthcare is on the chopping block.

A well fitted respirator protects you and those around you.

You’ll get sick less & make public spaces safer!

Goodnight.
🖼️ Woggle of Witches, Adrienne Adams.

An illustration from the children's book A Woggle of Witches by Adrienne Adams. It depicts a group of witches gathered around a long table in a dark forest at night. The witches, all wearing black robes and pointed hats, are shown in various poses, some standing on the table while others are seated. The scene is illuminated by torches, casting a yellow glow on the figures and the surrounding trees. A small bat is also visible flying near the table.

Obviously the outcome of today’s game was not good, but I got to watch the roof on T-Mobile Park close, and that will always captivate me. I am lucky this is my home ballpark, and the Mariners are my home team.
