Today, more than ever. #Texas, have you checked your municipal elections? They’re always the first Saturday in May and early voting is under way. I did my duty early.

This post is brought to you by #Amendments 13, 14, 15, 19, 24, and 26. #LocalElectionsMatter #LegacyOfSelma

I’m always disappointed and dismayed by how little the U.S. seems to think about this day 30 years ago. With the national temperature and who the perpetrators were, it should take on added meaning. #OKC

It’s still indescribable one year later.

Another place every American should visit: The Edmund Pettus Bridge, #Selma, #Alabama. 60 years ago today, #votingrights marchers trying to make the 54-mile trek along U.S. 80 to #Montgomery were fiercely turned back by state troopers who clubbed, whipped, tear gassed, and trampled them with horses.

A place every American should visit: #OklahomaCity Bombing Museum & Memorial. Brilliant, powerful, and moving homage to the 168 lives taken by anti-government, supremacy-based hatred in 1995, and a tribute to OKC’s resilience during those days and weeks afterward and the community’s rebirth.

I was bummed that I didn’t make it back to #Alaska this winter but the low temp last night here in North Texas was the same as the high in Fairbanks this time last year. Broke out the snow pants and boots to wear around the house today. #Dallaska ❄️

A stroll and a meal through #Fairbanks, one year ago. I learned #Alaska grows a lot of #blueberries and that Blueberry Moscow Mules are refreshing after subfreezing walks. Oh, and the Museum of the North at @uafairbanks.bsky.social is 💯💯💯.

A place everyone should visit: Rohwer Heritage Site in #Arkansas, the easternmost internment camp during #WorldWarII. When I visited in 2016, it was an interpretive site where you could walk around and listen to audio of @georgetakei.bsky.social narrate his time as a child there. #neverforget

Just thinking about that glorious time about a year ago when I flew by DENALI. My camera doesn’t do DENALI justice but DENALI was so majestic, towering above the clouds between Fairbanks and Anchorage. I need to get back to Alaska and see DENALI up close and personal some day. #Alaska #DENALI

Bonjour, Dallas! C’est une belle journée! #downtown #skyline #txwx

Still locating tribes here in Blueskyland. Found my #oilpastel peeps! I really need to pick up this hobby again. #oilpastels #amateurart
