The governor of Maine is a 77-year-old in the middle of her second term in office and therefore ineligible to run for a third. But King Trump here tries to intimidate her by saying she'll have no future career in politics if she dares to stand up to him. I think she's all good, man.

Jonathan McDowell is an international treasure doing fascinating and important work. I’ve used his reports and data many times. Well a watch/listen.

In an attempt to mollify Hannah somewhat for the arrival of and attention being given to Saffy The Rescue Puppy, I presented her with a brand new catnip stuffed banana. So, yes. Hannah has a banana. And she is stoned. 😸

Wow. Here is one to brighten up your morning. The first images of the restored interior of Notre Dame cathedral. Breathtaking. In just five years France did it

Making croissants is a ridiculously long process (2 days if you time it all right!) but when the cabin smells like a French bakery in the morning, and friends enjoy them later in the day, entirely worth it. #HappyThanksgiving!

OK, so this is SO me…retired for about 5 minutes and I’m rescuing a dog. World, meet “Saffy” - short for Sapphire - a Blue Heeler given up to the pound by her owner who could not care for her and intercepted before she got there by a friend of my neighbor’s….and the rest is herstory!

To everyone working WNC Recovery! This weekend friends reminded me to catch up on the Tdap vaccine since debris and pulling old nails out of flooded studs may put one at risk for tetanus. Probably a good thing for everyone to think about! I took care of it today. McCoy would be proud! #GetVaccinated
