BTW, Wisconsin voters came through, rejected MAGA, and sent the muskrat packing. The rule of law has been preserved.
Very Important Election…
…coming up. Remind everyone to vote—for Judge Crawford.
Last Day In The Desert
Farmers market, Sonoran hotdogs for lunch (thanks Mike), tamales from Beatrice coming up for dinner, and cocktails out on the breezy back patio.
San Pedro…
…riparian reserve, at San Pedro House, near Sierra Vista, AZ.

New Mexico…
…a few random shots of an interesting place.
Pretty Nice…
…in the southwest.
Watching Wisconsin basketball, in a remada with fireplace, and an old fashioned made by neighbor Judith.
Pinos Altos creek. Occasionally a roaring torrent.
Elections Matter…
…and voting for good candidates is the best form of resistance.
Early voting has begun and Election Day is April 1.
Very important vote for Wisconsin Supreme Court. Vote Judge Susan Crawford.
Snowdrops In…
…the rain.
Wandering The Solar System…
…at the UWM Planetarium.
Sap Is Running
As proven by the stump of this recently removed terrace tree. The roots continue to do their job although no superstructure remains to accept the sap.
The old black maple alongside the driveway also knows spring has arrived and is enthusiastically sugar coating the truck.
Back on the Bike
And a perfect day for it. Sunny and warm. Sandhills heard and seen; robins heard.
Getting Together,,,
…for this and that, including an early Mimi birthday celebration.
