This is how 2026 has begun for my husband and me. We are fully vaccinated but here we are. I wanted to just rest but then ICE killed a mother and the Administration is lying about the incident. The paxlovid can’t cure my rage.

I get away from the madness by hiking the beautiful NJ Pine Barrens. Yesterday I did a short 3 mile hike through one of our beautiful cranberry bogs. Hope you enjoy the serenity.

This is a photo from Longest Yarn D-Day Project which I saw in Cape May recently. It was created by knitters/crochet enthusiasts from around the world. Again. These are knitted figures representing every hour of the invasion. Enjoy.

I just finished a 4.47 mile walk with friends in Cape May Point. Here’s a gorgeous Swamp Darner who posed nicely for me.

I am also almost 80 years old. If I looked like that I would stay indoors all day. I’m heading out for my 3 mile walk and then come home to clean my house.
