Proud of our community here, we had 1,000 or more come out to support Democracy today. My sign was inspired by Hans and Sophie Scholl from the White Rose. They and others gave their lives speaking out against Hitler and the Nazi regime. #NoKings #ResistFascism #Democracy #Indivisible

Some photos from our Hand’s Off Rally in Bend OR today.

We‘ve had several large dumps of snow recently. Made it up to the Mt Bachelor Nordic Center for some cross country skiing today. #mtbachelor #nordicskiing

During my hike today I had great views of Mt. Bachelor and Newberry Volcano and ran into a huge herd of elk wintering in Sunriver.

We enjoyed a bit of our Winter Wonderland that is Central Oregon with a cross country ski outing today.

In Florence on Oregon Coast for more prep work on our new home. Christmas is in full swing here! #oregoncoast #florenceoregon

December 8 is always a bit sad for me, especially in these times. „You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one“.

Another beautiful day for a walk along the Deschutes River.

The beauty of some late afternoon sun during my walk along the Deschutes River today.

And sometimes a cow just gets in the way....
