Stunning.
Corgi wearing a pumpkin-themed scarf and relaxing on a carpeted stair looks at the camera with beautiful, inquisitive eyes.

Everyone: love my pumpkins.

I am handing out full-size candy bars tonight!

I’m really impressed with my child’s cookie cutter skills.

…

I try hard to offer magic or some sort of future, even though I have stopped believing in both.

Got my COVID Booster and Flu Shot! Because this is the kind of thing we brag about, now.

“Then perish.” The meme, from the Sonic the Hedgehog fanfic, sans words, showing only Obama’s eyes.

Now is time for cake!

At least there is still this for me.

Totally normal dog.
Corgi puppy sleeps with long body draped across two floor cushions, belly up, head wedged in between cushions in a manner that should not be possible nor comfortable.

Figured out how to open the kennel from the inside; has become ungovernable.

Foreshadowing.

Went to Wupatki National Monument today. This monument—alongside Sunset Crater National Monument, which it immediately borders—is one of the monuments that the Trump administration wants to gut completely.

It’s a small theft compared to some, but it is a theft—and I feel a bit gutted. What are writers to do about this? What is the point of creation when it’s ultimately fed into a billionaire’s belly?

Took the train to the Grand Canyon—I’ve come here often before, but it always makes me gasp, that first glance into the gorge.
View of Grand Canyon from the South Rim, with layers of limestone and red rock framed by ponderosa pines. View of Grand Canyon from the South Rim. The Colorado River is not visible, but the trail that leads into the deep canyon where the river runs is visible.

I went to Petrified Forest National Park, and it was so worth it.
Rusted Studebaker on a decrepit portion of Route 66. Only the body of the vehicle remains: everything else has rotted to nothing. Close-up photo of a petrified tree that is 218 million years old. Though petrified, details of bark layer, log, and interior rings are still visible in the rock.

Sometimes you walk along a river, and you find something nice.
Mushrooms grow on a fallen log. The mushrooms are brown, and the grasses around the log are also brown and dry.

Look at how lovely our parks—
Peak of the Grand Tetons mountain range rises above low-lying cloud front, pine, and verdant grass. Snow is visible in the crags of the mountain. Photograph from Grand Tetons National Park. Double arches photographed from below with blue sky and white clouds in the background. The rock of the arches is red in color and demonstrates the erosive process that formed the arches. Photograph from Arches National Park. Weeping rock formation, in which a small waterfall emerges from between two rock layers that form a cliffside. The waterfall is notable for, because it emerges directly from the cliff face rather than from the top. Photograph from Zion National Park. The foreground of the photograph shows compacted, bare dirt, while the middle ground shows eroded rock that changes hue, from dark to light. Photograph from Death Valley National Park.
