Hoya ‘Rebecca’

My phone isn’t doing it justice. The whole cluster is the size of my thumb nail. She has been a challenge to photograph the whole time. The corolla of the flowers are white and fuzzy and the corona are so tiny and a pale yellow. She smells like a light lily of the valley-ish. #hoya

Thankful for the ice tower that keeps water flowing to local houses in Mackinaw City.

It is so stupid and ahistorical. Do we replace all foreign/native place names with “American” names? What will the new names for St. Ignace, the Mackinac Island, Cheboygan, et al be? BTW, this penchant is also profoundly un American.

A cold sunrise over Mackinaw. Sadly, I wasn’t able to get a shot of the fox I saw walking out on the ice just before this.

Of course ending birthright citizenship is blatantly unconstitutional. So is a third term in office.

But I thought the same thing about presidential criminal immunity and holding office after inciting an insurrection.

The obvious is not so obvious anymore.

I’m running to be the next Governor of Michigan to ensure everyone gets a fair shot.

I'm a mom, military spouse, marathoner, educator — and Michigan’s Secretary of State.

Snagged this shot of the “Castle at the Straits” and then proceeded to drop my lens in the icy water. Turns out the lens was compromised when my camera fell earlier in the week. Now I’m researching lens repairs on YouTube 😂.

I updated this due to an astute follower pointing out that Alabama changed their laws to have off year local elections as well. That's a lot of races in 2025 in some 31 states! Local elections matter! Get involved! Send a message! This doesn't even include a bunch of special elections happening now!
