Shiloh would have turned 48 years old today.

When Wil and I went to Dead Creek to release the Monarch Butterfly, we also scattered a little more of Shiloh's ashes...at this lovely spot we used to visit with him. Just as we did, a shadow blocked the sun for a second and we looked up
to see a huge Turkey Vulture circle over us and fly off over the nearby trees. 
We couldn't help smiling.  

29 Days until the Midterms!

Little Notes of Hope

John Avery Whittaker, Artist and Inventor, on Threads: "My hyper-fundamentalist Quiver-Full parents (look it up) raised their 6 children to be a conservative army for Republican Jesus. All of us are flaming woke treehugging commies now. The "outbreed the libs" tack only works if your adult kids sign on to your program."(note from a different person) "I don't remember the names of half the guys I dated or hung out with in college. You know whose name I do remember? Dave Dolan, the guy who lived in my dorm sophomore year who saw me passed out in my room one night (I was an RA so I didn't have a roommate) with the door open and some guys he didn't recognize walking in. He escorted them out, tucked me into bed, making sure I was on my side, put a trash can next to me, and shut my door as he left. The next morning he checked on me. I remember him."

ONE MONTH UNTIL THE MIDTERMS!

Natural consequences?

This is from Jack Blasts Off.  I have read several of the books in the series with kids at the library, but am still somewhat unclear about the relationship between rabbit Jack and the Lady.  And, does the dog, Rex, belong to the Lady or Jack?

 Not sure the punishment fits the crime here.

An old woman with glasses scolds the dog Rex. The text reads "The Lady is mad at Rex. "Jack", she says, "we have to blast you to space. You too, Rex"
