“Glassy Trees”
I would suggest that the President read Matthew 25:36-40 except that I’m fairly sure that he cannot read.
Still, I think it’s pretty clear that Christ would not support his voter suppression act, despite his call to “make this one for Jesus.”
“Hunter in the Trees”
Did not get a lot of great shots on this trip, but here’s one from my night hike out.
Mushroom, moss, and ferns: Oregon trifecta.

Survived my one-night backpacking trip. Hiking was fine (38 miles), camping less so. I think I may have aged out of sleeping in the woods.
I believe these are pulmonaria flowers (which sounds so much nicer than lungwort!). Spotted in the Rhododendron Garden at Hendricks Park.

Petulant man-baby threatens to blow up power plants starting with the biggest one first.
NYT pointed out that the biggest Iranian power plant is in fact a nuclear power plant.
I look forward to the war crimes trials.
“Summer Snowflakes”
Lots of pretty flowers out at the Hendricks Park Rhododendron Garden today, despite it being early in the season.
Violet after the rain.

Pack weight for an overnight is coming in at 33 pounds. That’s heavier than I’d like. Some of the extra weight comes from the fact that it’ll probably be slightly below freezing where I plan to camp. Some is “packing my fears”: people tell me I don’t really need a bear can in the Central Cascades. But dammit I’ve seen bears there and I don’t really want to see them any closer. Anyhow, hopefully I can still do 40-50 miles across two days.
