Sunday Stills: #Daylight in Black and White
In the US last weekend, we (reluctantly) turned the clocks forward for daylight saving time for most of the states. What happened to the choice voters made a few years ago to end this madness?

Sunday Stills: Honoring Mother #Earth
In a normal universe, we would likely be celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day (April 22) outside, perhaps at a large event venue.

Doing my part for the Delta … Continue reading Sunday Stills: Honoring Mother #Earth
