What was our final crowd estimate?

My husband and I are both vets and have always enjoyed flying the flag at our home. But not so much since the flag has become more of a symbol of white racial nationalism instead of patriotism.

The "radical left" must have had some kinda budget to afford to pay the millions of "terrorists" to protest so peacefully.

Amen, brother. This Navy vet protests not because I hate my country. I protest because I love my country.

A little bit of Colorado color to brighten a government shutdown kinda day. #aspengold #fallcolors #coloradoaspens #autumncolor #nokings

Orange and gold aspens mixed with dark green pines on a mountain side with a grey peak mountain top and blue cloudless sky.

Sunrise paints a pallet of oranges and golds and greens. A mixture of aspens yet to turn, red Gambel Oaks and golden Cottonwoods.

A white and brown Paint horse giving the photographer a steely eye against a background of golden aspen trees and green pines.

Golden aspens and green pines reflected in a pond.

There were great presentations today. Esp on phenology. I've been tracking blooming periods in my yard the past 3 years. Now I'm eager to expand my observations and contribute to the different projects.

Enrolled Shawnee here: I'd like to report descendants of foreign invaders since 1492.

Birds of a feather. Are there any media watch groups counting how many times he's lauded dictators and autocrats in comparison to how many times he has/hasn't lauded democratic leaders?

I inadvertently attracted an opossum to my front deck by leaving a bad of trash out over night. And then invited a mama one by leaving an empty box that she took shelter in. No native plants necessary. LOL.
