This is a great summary of what we are experiencing within FWS:

“Clearly, you remove the experienced leadership from any organization with no plan for transition, that threatens the function of those entities”

This story paints a dire picture for the National Wildlife Refuge System.

“The nation’s 573 national wildlife refuges are at risk and not a single refuge has the resources it requires, according to a recent U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service inventory.”

Waking up this morning and feeling charged up.

What happened to checks and balances?

Why is the Executive Branch not following court orders?

Why is the legislative branch going along with the erosion of their power?

Who will stand up and enforce the Law?

"The Song of the Bottle Tree" is a hauntingly beautiful story about family, trauma, and healing. Hayford accurately describes the ambiance of the rural South, its culture, and the religious cults that can be found there. I can't wait to read her next book!

I am so excited to start reading "The Song of the Blue Bottle Tree." 💙📚I won it through a Goodreads giveaway! I received an advanced reader's edition since the book does not go on sale until late March.

Tell your kids, seek out the librarians…instead of a policeman.🧐 It’d be safer, imo.
