My father, my stepfather, my uncles, my GFs all served & while they all made it back, for my uncles, there were deep mental scars. They’re all gone now, but I think of their sacrifice today. War changed all their lives. Below: my GF home on leave. My father (L), later served in the Army & CG.

A picture of my Dad, who has been dead almost 20 yrs, taken while serving as a medic during WWll. Finding a moment to read was so typical of him.

We went on a picnic the day after my mom died, bc picnics are a generational tradition in our family and I really wanted to celebrate life that day. I hadn’t really looked at the photos from that day and I just realized how sweet they are.

My first Mother’s Day without my mom. I’m thinking of her today with love and gratitude. Mom died on Jan. 25th as the sun was rising.

Grand daughter, seeing here, eating her foot, also, spontaneously verbally identified the letters “O”,”M” and “I” on her father’s shirt. She’s 20 months. 😳

My grandson has been very into snakes, particularly rattlesnakes. So my daughter found him a stuffed snake with eggs inside and all the eggs have baby snakes just as a rattlesnake reproduces! They are ovoviviparous, meaning, they give birth to live young.

The last day of our trip for me (Juan contours on). It was the first time either of us were in Ensenada. It’s such a lovely city and we had such a good time today!

We’re in Hilo, Hawaii today and got to enjoy Akaka Falls. Off and on rain all day, some of it heavy, but we had a lovely day. I’m proud of the first shot here of the rain forest walk leading to the falls.

All she wants to do is explore. She’s absolutely fearless! It’s terrifying! She climbed all the way up that rope ladder and hoisted herself up on the platform above- at 15 months!

Saguaros often start life under the protection of a “nurse tree” and eventually, they kill it. There’s a metaphor there somewhere.

My dear friend, who is intersex, made this meme today & I got his permission to post it. He’s the one who made such a splash on Substack w/his video on being intersex. He saved a teacher’s job in a local SD. The teacher dared to say that intersex ppl exist.

Juan has been asked to participate on an advisory panel to help design an exhibit on Operation Wetback & it’s consequences at a large & influential museum. I would say this is pertinent now, since Trump has mentioned often that he admired this disaster. Institutions are fighting back in many ways.

Sorry about the mess, but I wanted to tell you about this. My husband, @ProfJuanRGarcia wrote one of the seminal works on Operation Wetback, a deportation program during the Eisenhower admin that resulted in the deportation of Am citizens.

Hey my friends, I was told by Twitter that the post below was “hateful speech”. I appealed and five minutes later, they reversed themselves.

Oh no Michelle! I’m so sorry. I understand that’s very painful and frightening. I hope you recover from the surgery and I’m very pleased your cancer is in remission. GS had Covid, RSV and seizures. GD had norovirus, which then GS caught.

15 mo old grand-daughter dragged a tall step stool over to a high-ish cabinet. Got a bottle of meds w/a child-proof cap and opened it by herself in just a few seconds. My daughter actually watched her press down and twist. She is WAY too smart! Terrifying!

Christmas evening after dinner. My daughter, my youngest grand-daughter and me. It says something about gender roles that we’re cleaning the kitchen, although, in fairness my husband hand washed the crystal.

Today is my youngest daughter’s 33rd birthday. She was born on the Solstice, on the cusp, on the night of a lunar eclipse, her birth weight was 6.66 & her 21st b-day was the Mayan calendar’s end of the world.

As many of you know, I’ve lived w/in 50 mi of the U.S.-Mex border for most of my life & my grands are 5th gen Arizonans. My husband, a U.S. historian, has written most of his publications on the border. Now my daughter has become Director of a museum
