I'm not much good at social media; I never know what to post anymore. I love to keep up with folks but need to move away from FB and Zuckerberg. I love travel, photography, national parks, and history.

Vote! Too much “red” made this mess; with no end in sight. #IranWar #Epstein #InflationEconomy Issues that his base cares about and it will affect their votes. REMIND them! 👍 (Daily!! 😎)

Iceland has a lot of spectacular waterfalls, but this pair is near the top of the list for me. The scene makes me marvel at how nature could create something so beautiful. To help with scale, I estimate the upper drop to be ~50-60 feet. #timothykeeneyphotography #photography #landscapephotography

The autumn colors were still in the early phases on Tuesday, but the recent rains have the creeks running up on the passes. I was happy to spend a few quality moments with this flow at Deadwood Gulch. #Photography #Landscape #Nature #Outdoors #Colorado #Waterfall #Monochrome #BlackAndWhite

Funny how it's always us that have to give things up when they crash the economy. There's no consequences for them; they continue to collect their taxpayer funded salaries and use taxpayer money to bail out large financial institutions.

Karen Bass’s LAPD is openly defying a judge’s order to hand over moonlighting records, and it's obvious why. They are desperately hiding a shadow workforce where cops moonlight for ICE contractors, creating blatant conflicts of interest. It's time to enforce the subpoena and demand accountability.

Sen. Susan Collins cast the pivotal vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh in 2018. He then helped overturn Roe v. Wade four years later. Now she’s battling for her Senate seat in the midterms, and abortion rights groups are betting that voters haven’t forgotten how she contributed to the fall of Roe.

A breathtaking landscape photograph captures the dramatic spectacle of the sun setting behind rolling hills, its golden rays piercing through a dramatic cloud formation to illuminate the verdant foliage below.
The scene is composed with a vertical orientation, emphasizing the expansive sky and the dramatic descent of light. The sun is the clear focal point, emanating powerful rays that stretch across the frame. The foreground is dominated by dry, golden grasses, leading the eye upwards towards the middle ground, where lush green trees are dramatically lit. The background features layered hills fading into a hazy horizon, creating a sense of depth and vastness. The atmosphere is one of profound beauty and serenity, evoking a sense of awe and the transient nature of time. The mood is simultaneously dramatic and peaceful, a testament to the raw power and exquisite artistry of nature.
