The depths of winter

There is much unrest in the world. Disasters, Climate Change, leading to fear and anger. Canadians are pretty much upset. It doesn't have to be this way. Much "vexatious drivel" someone said. Our premiers are singing their own songs, not in harmony with all of Canada. People are forgetting basic manners. 

I took some time, while working out, watching the Hegseth hearings and it is discouraging. Putting a front line soldier who bankrupted a non-profit agency in charge of a huge budget ($900 billion) surely cannot work. He's covered in white nationalist tattoos, too. 

    "Did you sexually assault a woman?"

    Pete Hegseth: "I'm not a perfect person"

🔥🚒 It seems that there are many against diversity. Thankfully, some people are speaking up and out. They attacked the fire chief in LA. Jessica stands up for her. (I don't know who she is, but good on her!) 

Look at the action on and around the fires. Jan. 10, 2025. People looking after people. Canada is sending two more water bombers. 

Then, Jan 11, 8 a.m.

When you think of the logistics, the human effort, skills, and expertise...

🧯 What is comforting is seeing both Canadian and Mexican firefighters showing up in California to help out with the fires. 

🐾Cinnamon went out with me to get the trailcam cards. He refused to go to the forest. The snow is cold on little cat toe pads.

I'm having fun with trailcams. OK, not exactly 'fun,' as I am having trouble getting the proper settings for one camera. It seems trigger happy. I did a screen capture to show you. Each folder had 999 images, I think triggered by weeds blowing in the breeze! The red squirrel appeared in about a dozen images! It happened again. 

 

We'll see what fun I can find today! Hope you find some fun, too.
