Future Posts

I'll only say this about that.

I will continue posting, talking about the Alaskan weather, local news, and national issues when I feel so moved. My daughters & I will continue visiting the range, and life goes on.

Note that I didn't say "goes on as before." With the apparent collapse of the Republican Party, those who voted for free stuff outnumbered those of us who wanted to be left alone.

Things will go on, but not as before. The country has been altered, perhaps irrevocably, although many of the changes have yet to be implemented. But it will not be the America in which I grew up; that place is gone. I accept that, and move on.

I refuse to be cowed, depressed, or defeated, and I remember what "Chesty" Puller said: "We're surrounded - that simplifies our problem!"

Carry on ... and remember: "If God be for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31)

Made in America

Brigid has a most excellent post on her blog, about America, its flag, the common decency of common folk, and why it's worth remembering & fighting for.

A Post Too Good Not to Share

Please go to Home on the Range and read Brigid's latest post. She has written about life in the United States: what it is, and what it has meant to her.

I cannot read it without getting tears in my eyes for what we're on the verge of losing, and yet a swelling of pride for who and what we are, and what has made U.S. great.

Do yourself a HUGE favor and read it all. I guarantee it's the best post you'll read all day.
