I'm not much good at social media; I never know what to post anymore. I love to keep up with folks but need to move away from FB and Zuckerberg. I love travel, photography, national parks, and history.

Meme, picture of Obama laughing, above text that reads, “Dear Iran, If you really want to make Trump mad, release a statement saying you’ll only negotiate with Obama.”

Winter scene, stars in the sky over snow covered trees: words that say, “Happy winter solstice.”
2 pictures: One candid photo, Sept. 18, 2000 (Patrick McMullan, photographer) showing the President sitting next to convicted sex trafficker, Ghislaine Maxwell, in a friendly and familiar pose at the Anand Jon Fashion Show in New York City; The other photo is a recent picture showing a grown-up victim of Jeffrey Epstein, Virginia Giuffre, holding an old photo of herself as a young woman - she ended her own life April 25, 2025; her memoir was published posthumously “Nobody’s Girl,” in October 2025.
Photo of text: “Me: it’s not hire many times you fall, it’s about how many times you get back up. Cop: that’s not how field sobriety tests work.”
Quote from Jimmy Carter, with his picture - “A strong nation, like a strong person, can afford to be gentle, firm, thoughtful, and restrained. It can afford to extend a helping hand to others. It’s a weak nation, like a weak person, that must behave with bluster and boasting and rants and other signs of insecurity.”
