Just landed at LAX and seeing the news about the President’s blame game. What an absolute ass, and that’s being mild. 2 significant disasters already in 2025 and all he can do is lie and point fingers. I have no idea how I’m going to get through this Admin.

We’ve lost too many irreplaceable CA State Park natural and cultural resources in the past few years.
Historic Bidwell Mansion in Chico destroyed by fire, Californians mourn loss
The Bidwell Mansion was built by John Bidwell in the 1860s. John and his wife Annie entertained guests in the mansion, like President Rutherford B. Hayes.

This, in a nutshell, is part of what is completely broken in the US today.
I want to watch TV coverage of the live fall of the Syrian regime.

CNN is airing a Giuliani documentary, Fox News has a comedian joking about Canada, MSNBC a documentary about migrants

So I turned on BBC,which is breathlessly switching between Syria, South Korea demonstrations, and Ghana election

Sagebrush is soaked after this round of the bomb cyclone moved through. It’s a beautiful morning.

I started my career with State Parks as a seasonal in 1989. Two weeks ago, I retired. I might go back to being a seasonal ranger at some point, or maybe just volunteer. Feeling a little disoriented, frankly, but very grateful for all the friends and memories.
