Great morning at the Farmers Market with @creighdeeds.bsky.social. New name for the event: Melting and Meeting! Big BS Bill was top issue raised by folks. Lots of concerns with how it will harm housing developments, IRC, food services, our economy and more.

Watching The Roosevelts on PBS. Reminded that we were once governed by good and great people. A poster and button from the 1936 campaign remains my favorite.

RIP Brian Wilson, www.nytimes.com/2025/06/11/a...

Brian Wilson, Songwriter and Leader of the Beach Boys, Dies at 82
