Thanks for the memories, October. We roamed and rambled and meandered, and took in the beauty of fall in western Virginia. Hundreds of photos and countless remembrances of autumn 2025.

Think of it as pep rallies for America!
Saturday, April 5, 2025 - Mark your calendars!
THIS IS THE BIG ONE! Over 200 marches and protests planned including at the Washington Monument in D.C. Let’s get millions in the streets to protest Trump and the assault on our democracy and way of life!

Crossing Afton Mountain Thursday afternoon while driving home, the snowy mountain peaks in Shenandoah National Park were highlighted by the setting sun as we descended on I-64 into the Shenandoah Valley. #LoveWhereILive #Virginia

"Now it's your turn to stand guard. May you all be the keeper of the flame. May you keep the faith. I love America. You love it, too. Thank you for this great honor."

It’s snowing in the darkness tonight, second time in a week, filling in footprints in the snow and blanketing us with another layer of quiet…. #ShenandoahWinter

The GOP continues to drown in hypocrisy, and the press has joined them. If they challenge our credibility, then dang it all, challenge theirs! Trump has driven credibility into the ground; Biden looks like an angel beside him except the press can’t stop pounding him. Time for Dems to stop pounding.
