Lol! There used to be power in powder. Now you just really need to power through the powder, especially when you're snowshoeing with those! I will rent some if I ever see them, they are interesting!

Wow. I'll have to try some like those sometime. They must be for really deep snow, methinks. THX

Are those snowshoes going to work?? I mean, i've snowshoed quite a bit, but never with anything like those.

No, he'll leave you with quickly trained military medics who know little of the art of nursing.

They have probably found carpenter ants, their favorite food!

Thank you for showing us your beautiful world.

We live by a creek with huge old sycamore and walnut trees, and they raise their babies here!We love watching them!They can be a bit destructive, but if you fence off your beloved gardens with chicken wire and set boundaries, it's a lot of fun. We talk to them, they listen. Rehab sounds challenging!

The vast majority of farmer/ranchers here have been living in debt for decades. The bank owns a lot here. The rich just want people to tend the land and animals until they can raise the taxes, get the land and sell it at a profit to other poor people who will live here in modern slavery.

The ag community is schizo as heck. I live in one. They parrot just about anything they hear and they want it both ways.

When i was 18 my aunt, a nurse, said "Be a nurse! You can get a job anywhere!" That's what i did. Lived and worked in 5 different states! I lived my life moving to where i wanted to be, with folks i loved. Most young folks can't do that now and it is unfuriating! "Everybody's got a right to live."

Thank you so much for this gorgeous photo! What a bird.

I'm so sorry you're having the furnace problems! Being cold is no fun, scary. Sure hope you can find someone to help you tomorrow. Sending all positive vibes your way!

I took his Climate Reality training in 2014 and was struck by his awe of the natural world. He's a great networker (see video of him and Rev. Barber) and is really a scientist's dream-he can educate and unify.

Bernie, Pramila, Ro, AOC, Pritzker, Newsom, Warren, Jess Piper, Jane Kleeb, Bill McKibben, Rev. Barber, Jasmine, Marc Elias, Kat, all you INDIVISIBLES!

That's what it looks like to me too. Ooooh, this triggers me!😆😅

I worked in the system for 30 yrs. in 4 different states and knew very few healthcare workers who would donate to tRump ever. Vast majority of healthcare workers realize the dire need for universal healthcare. Not sure where you get your data, but your statement is not a reliable summary.
November 27, 2025 at 2:25 AM
As a nurse, i would love to see some data to back up your last statement, please. Not buying it.
November 27, 2025 at 1:55 AM
Thank you for feeding us, and thank you for all that you do.
