I wrote this a few years ago specifically about Pacific Northwest #wildfire season and coping with the #smoke. There’s good information in it that’s applicable broadly.

I hope people find it useful.

Tonight, we join the nation in mourning the loss of President Jimmy Carter.

In the 1970s, Friends of the Boundary Waters worked with Carter's administration to pass the Boundary Waters Wilderness Act. By signing this bill, President Carter helped to make the Boundary Waters what it is today.

Regarding my last post on #AWalkinthePark by Kevin Fedarko, here is some of the beautiful poetry:

“This was light made liquid, as if someone had melted the stain-glass windows of every cathedral in France”

Happy Winter Solstice to all in the northern hemisphere.

The turn of the year's tide, a pivot-point, a day of hope—when the dark stops rising & after which the Sun begins its slow climb back.
A day I celebrate more than Christmas or New Year.

Fiat lux!

So the hurricane relief funds Southern Appalachia desperately needs which were initially withheld until after the election due to partisan optics are now tied to a bill that keeps the government running which a billionaire has decided to kill as a flex?

The propaganda against socialized medicine has been so effective that Americans, who have the *most* expensive health care in the world along with the *worst* health outcomes, think that collective health care will be worse.
