Gift article from NYT. The shooting by ICE of a 37 year old woman in Minneapolis is just horrible. There is no excuse I can see. Investigation is taking place - hopefully ICE will leave. It’s scary to think the Feds could use this as a way to declare Marshall law.

Bob and I saw the monks on their walk for peace this afternoon outside of nearby Watkinsville, GA
They are about 1/2 on their journey of 2300 miles from Texas to DC. They waved, smiled and made eye contact. I saw Aloka the peace dog. Shed a few tears of happiness to see them.

Thanks Chad :)

Revisiting Pylon Reenactment Society’s ‘Christmas Daze’
‘Christmas Daze’ hums with the notion that life moves better when you stay present enough to catch the beauty flickering in every passing second.
