The only downside is that there’s pretty much no signal in the forest. We chose the route: Prairie Creek Visitor Center 👉 Miners Ridge Trail 👉 Fern Canyon Trail 👉 Gold Bluffs Beach.

Grew up with Soviet hockey in my blood—this kind of stat just hits different. Back-to-back hat tricks in the playoffs? That’s history.
Only three players in Stanley Cup Playoffs history have recorded hat tricks in back-to-back games:
◽️ Doug Bentley (1944)
◽️ Jari Kurri (1985)
◽️ Mikko Rantanen (2025)

I’m really only just getting into it but I genuinely love birding as a hobby. The entire goal is to look at the bird. Is there a bird? There is a bird! Look at the bird! If you are very keen you can learn what to call the bird so that you can properly thank it for the joy you feel when you see it. 🪶

Every citizen in the USA should be obliged to read or watch

Now.
Oh. Damn it. It's already banned in parts of the USA.
When a book becomes alive. Too quick.
It seems it's already too late for a rising. But I do hope I am wrong.

Economic freedom means very little when families can't afford housing, health care, or education. Markets are powerful — but without guardrails, they leave people behind.

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

The order marks a win for the Trump administration, even if temporary, and it could well be a harbinger of things to come as the administration continues to clash with federal courts.
