When your friends 9 year old son that has never shot a gun tells you he wants to learn how to deer hunt…you make the time! .22 ➡️ 5.56 ➡️ 450 Still working on “leaning” into it.

Cleaning up trees that were blown down during spring storms. Ended up with six, 6’ sections 14-16” in diameter out of this oak. Lots of BTU’s still in the top that I’ll get to this winter

Good morning!

Watching Texas beat Ohio St. Go Blue!!

Todd Beamer was the passenger on United Airlines Flight 93 who rallied fellow passengers to fight back against the 9/11 hijackers with the phrase "Let's roll" and stopped it from reaching Washington, DC. This is his daughter, Morgan, who was born 4 months after his death and went on to play women's soccer at his alma mater, Wheaton College. Imagine how proud he would be. 🇺🇸 #neverforget

Unfortunately, this is something my family knows all too well. It’s ok, to not be ok. #988

Somebody, somewhere in NYC for whatever reason recorded the New York 1 morning news broadcast on Sept. 11, 2001. They wound up recording history. It starts at 8:30 a.m. ET. You get 15 minutes of news from the Before Times. Then the world changes. youtube.com/watch?v=FH9bvzeF…

The time has come Go Blue!

I’m all for jury nullification in situations where the Government is infringing upon people’s rights….but not in cases of someone murdering 3 children. WTF is wrong with the jury. The facts are not disputed - she killed her kids.

“Dear Dr. Fauci, For 12 years, I was an emergency room nurse. I loved caring for people on their hardest days. I wasn’t looking for a fight or trying to make a statement — I just wanted to care for my patients and go home to my family. Then I was faced with a decision that changed everything. I spent countless hours praying, researching, and searching my heart. I wasn’t acting out of fear. I was trying to make the right medical decision for my own body and my own circumstances. When the time came, I said no. That one word cost me the career I’d spent 12 years building. My husband and I sold nearly everything we owned and moved across the country to Tennessee to start over. You don’t make a decision like that unless your convictions run deeper than your comfort. But losing my career wasn’t the hardest part. Watching our profession change was. I watched patients ridiculed for their choices, labeled “non-compliant” as if that erased everything else about who they were. I watched staff treat them like the enemy instead of the person in front of them. I heard a doctor say he’d leave patients outside in the parking lot — that’s what they get. I was met with the same ridicule and hostility for following my own conscience. Healthcare taught me to see the person before the diagnosis. To care first, to listen, to treat every patient with dignity — whether or not I agreed with their decision. Somewhere along the way, it felt like many of us forgot that. I don’t write this because of politics. I write it because accountability matters, and the people whose lives were changed deserve to have their stories heard. This is my story. My hope is that we never again ask healthcare workers to choose between their conscience and their calling. That informed consent stays meaningful. That respectful questions are welcomed, not feared. And that next time, compassion doesn’t depend on agreement. This isn’t written from bitterness — it’s written from grief for what was lost, gratitude for where God has led my family, and hope that truth and compassion guide us forward.” Amy Frame, RN, BSN, NC-BC, ACC A Nurse.
