Cheers to world travel, nature, art, philanthropy, humor, and nerdy medical, scientific, legal, and political topics.

I live in a bloody red GOP area in FL. Feels so odd that putting up this Harris-Walz sign in my front yard today feels like an act of courage. Fighting the fear that is deeply steeped in this area where Dems may live but are quite quiet. Voting Dem all the way.

First attempt creating a couple glass candle holders decorated with pressed flowers from my little garden. Fuchsia bougainvillea, red crown of thorns, and yellow milkweed and buttercup. Not too shabby. 😄

@npub135d…tg9k @npub13vy…lczv Correction to my toot about getting permission to speak at the Orlando City Council meeting on Aug 15th. I should have just quoted the website: “Requests to speak must be submitted by 9 a.m. on the day of the meeting. Note: General appearances are limited to 3 minutes each, although if there are a large number of requests to speak, Council may reduce the time allocated for each speaker.”
Cheers!
