how do you write abt a lonesome dove revival w/o noting all the homesteading/little house/comstock nostalgia that is getting pushed as well though. i'm not reading that dude's essay but like it is a whole very obvious thing? from the crowd who doesn't know how to wear a cowboy properly.

it is prob too much to expect many brewer/ducey appointed judges get chucked in nov but the old man spent some time yesterday figuring out all of the judges on the ballot and i am not sure they have faced this kind of scrutiny before

how to find fall butterflies in se az: go towards any shrub w a bit of motion just above it. the snouts are real flighty and they will all pop off. so look at the wings that stayed on the shrub. and they will be hairstreaks? get real they are all snouts
000
roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 06/10/2026
also you can't download a manual on the sycamore dam section of the az trail not even a little bit of signal it is great
000
roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

000
roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

there are asters and russian thistle and it is very very pokey and there aren't many little guys but the creek is running and the water is at least cool. we are auper pissed at whoever torched the sycamore/cottonwood stretch - the it all the shade gone
000
roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

000
roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
it is a little windier than i prefer but the aster patches won't last forever if they are blooming at all on the mountain so we will go up the mountain a little

$90 is like a super pathetic bribe though

roomthily.bsky.social @roomthily.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
