An organization we have supported for many years. We lived in Littleton Colorado when Columbine High School happened. We looked for a group that was working to make sense of the fact that gun violence was overwhelming our country. Every Town and Mom’s Demand Action have represented people who know it must stop now. https://www.everytown.org/myths-facts-about-ghost-guns/…

April is National Donate Life Month. I fly a flag honoring the amazing people who made the decision to give the ultimate gift.

The situation created by the invasion of a sovereign, independent nation by a madman, bully has pushed millions of people, mostly women and children to flee their home in terror. Poland and other nearby nations are accepting the new refugee nation.

The Kingdom Of Bhutan. A landlocked country in the Eastern Himalaya’s. China is to the north and India is to the south. The etymology of the word Bhutan is unclear. It may be from the Sanskrit ‘Bhota-Anta’ which transliterates as ‘The end of Tibet’. It is in close proximity to Tibet and shares the deep…
