Ok I’m about to change it up and get a little spooky. 😱
Here are some photos of an Eastern Black Rat snake climbing very high up into a tree.
It stayed in the tree for 3 days.
So when you’re hiking in the woods be sure to walk where you step… and also check the trees. 🐍

Foundy is coming back! Drove past rubble and the beginnings of a rebuild to buy a beer at the freshly reopened Wedge location.
Bouldering gym opens next week!

So my sunrise post caught the algorithm wind.
A microcosm of life as a trans person- most people just like the post, share the post, some people comment.
Then there’s one transphobe who just cannot take a beautiful sunrise photo and has to comment on the 🏳️⚧️
Blocked me 🤷🏻♂️
Hopefully bc I’m punny.

I love a reminder, especially one as gorgeous as this - that for all our human drama, there are forces that know nothing of our petty chaos and they just keep on going.

Since I shared the photo that brings up the most grief, might as well also share the one that gives me the most hope.
Hope…even when the creek rises.

“We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors. We borrow it from our children.”
- Chief Seattle
I took this photo 1 year ago, and it has haunted me ever since.
Every parent wants to avoid this inevitable moment, when your child experiences a trauma completely outside of your control.

Took the kid to pick out a betta fish the other day.
It’s some double tail male variety but the kid referred to it as she in the parking lot.
I said “it’s a male fish but if you want to use she words for it that’s up to you.”
She paused, thoughtful, and said
“Her name is Precious.”
