A wonderful day at the National Botanic Garden of Wales. This was the best botanical garden I have ever visited. So vast and lots of variety and a must see if in the area. #photography #Wales #samsungS24 #bees #botanicalgardens #travel #flowers #travelphotography #gardens

Skomer Island, Wales UK: puffins are the funniest flyers. They fly like a potato with butterfly 🦋 wings. I could watch them all day. #photography #Wales #puffins #sony6700 #travel #birds #skomer #wildlife

Don’t let this administration take away your joy. Yes, what they’re doing is wrong and terrifying, but don’t let them take away the one thing that’s yours. Surround yourself with community. Do things you love. Yes, things look bleak, and you also need joy. Don’t let them take that away.

Hiking in Valley of Fire State Park (NV) the last few days and we have had blue skies, cool temperatures and some wind. The views are difficult to put into words as the terrain is varied in both color and texture. #photography #samsungS24 #nevada #valleyoffire #hiking @desertcyclist.bsky.social

Wide angle landscape photo of Valley of Fire State Park in Nevada taken midday in mid March 2025. View is of scrubby green and yellow grasses and small bushes in foreground, rolling terrain of red sand and dirt hills in midground and huge red stone cliffs with deep canyons and fissures in the distance producing interesting shadows and providing depth the photo. Bright blue sky with long streaks of white partially opaque clouds frame the top of the photo which was taken on a bright and sunny day.

I am out hiking this morning with my husband. Hiking is my primary coping mechanism for dealing with my stress of watching our country fall apart under the dreadful and evil Trump/Musk Administration. Scout Cave Trail Snow Canyon SP. #photography #samsungS24 #utah #snowcanyon

Photo taken from back of Cave looking out at silhouette of 2 people with their arms up in victory standing at the mouth of the Cave. Sides of photo are dark but beyond mouth of Cave blue skies and clouds and the city of St. George UT in mid ground, snow capped mountains in far distance and red sandstone hills of snow canyon state park, UT in foreground.

More like SHOULD be! But Republicans continue to double down on Pres. Trump/Musk and their stupid policies. Painful watching the fall of our country.

Trabell @trabell.bsky.social · 14/03/2025

I don't think you have any fight left so please step aside to allow room for those that do! We need a resistance leader and that person is not you. Sorry, not sorry.

Yep, with the exception of my mom who I love regardless. 😀

Holy hell! This country continues to spiral down into the abyss of stupidity. As a scientist, I am speechless. Trump and his cronies are destroying our country for generations to come with absurdities like this!

020

Trabell @trabell.bsky.social · 05/03/2025

100%! Obstruct and be loud, not sit there holding stupid little signs. Dems looked so weak and pathetic...it's no wonder the party has fallen apart.

010

Trabell @trabell.bsky.social · 05/03/2025

Aren't we past protesting by wearing pink and sitting quietly holding little protest signs? The Dems need to be loud and obstruct! Why wasn't there a plan for other members to follow suit and do the same thing Rep. Al Green did? One person right after another and shut Trump down completely?

Trabell @trabell.bsky.social · 05/03/2025

A large crowd showed up yesterday in Tucson (AZ) at Armory Park to make our voices heard that we do not support this Administration or their agenda which is destroying our country and dismantling our rights. Keep resisting! #50501movement #FiftyFiftyOne #Tucson #Arizona #Protest #Resist #NoKings

Photo of yesterday's storm over the Catalina Mountains (AZ) which sadly brought no rain which we desperately need. #photography #catalinasp #arizona #tucson #sony #sony6700 with @desertcyclist.bsky.social

Photograph from Catalina State Park on 03MAR2025 with a wide angle view of desert scrub in the foreground, a lone saguaro cactus in the center mid ground and the Catalina Mountains in the distance.

Another day, another photograph of a hike in Catalina State Park. It was warm and sunny making it a perfect February day in the desert. I was surprised it was so busy even after the significant entrance fee increase. #arizona #photography #sony #sony6700 #catalinasp @desertcyclist.bsky.social

A desert image of a blue sky with swirling white clouds in the distance and a crested saguaro in the middle of the image and a horizontal dead saguaro on the ground with only its ribs visible. Sony a6700 1/100 f/18 24mm ISO100

I spotted this bird at El Rio Preserve in Marana AZ which I just labeled a woodpecker, but the real birders near me assured me it is a red-naped sapsucker. #arizona #photography #birds #sony #sony6700 @desertcyclist.bsky.social

El Rio Preserve in Marana AZ is a lovely place. Lots of birds, birders and photographers this morning. I am not a birder myself but everybody was super friendly. This photo is of the common killdeer at the edge of the pond. #photography #arizona #birds #sony #sony6700 @desertcyclist.bsky.social

Always! We are crack of the dawn people and we are usually the first car in the parking lot. I am always amazed at the people heading out at noon, wearing crocs and not carrying any water. Lol I don't like the heat so only early morning hikes for me.

Trabell @trabell.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

Trying to get in as many hikes before the temperature soars in a few months. It was the perfect hiking weather today. 6.3 miles, 1000 ft elevation, blue skies and sunshine = bliss! Pima Canyon Trail. No water in wash or wildflowers yet. #photography #samsungS24 #arizona #hiking

I waited much much too long to get these in the ground. I separated the containers and all of the 🍅 stems were so weak they just feel over. I will have to plant the 🍅very deep to get them to stand upright. Oops. I know better and I learned about this at a Biosphere 2 tour were they did the same.

Trabell @trabell.bsky.social · 24/02/2025

We packed a Chipotle picnic to watch the sunset at Catalina SP. Hubby forgot the forks so we had to make aluminum "scoops" from the lids and I forgot my SD card so I stole one from his camera. Oops! We 😍 it here in the winter. #photography #sony #catalinasp @desertcyclist.bsky.social

Good for you! We will probably do the same after our long ago booked trips happen.

Ugh? Do they really? Sigh...who do you recommend as an alternative? I have purchased from Terrior Seeds and also Native Seeds with good luck. I need to do better research before purchasing, but I am exhausted.

Trabell @trabell.bsky.social · 22/02/2025

Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds by chance? They did this to me, but it was a 7 day gap to shipping. Quite annoying Also, one packet was a complete dud (nothing sprouted) after 2 attempts. I think i will look for a different company next year. Any suggestions?

This is what procrastination looks like in my life. I planted my seeds indoors many weeks ago and they really NEED to be planted outdoors in my garden this weekend. 11 varieties of 🍅, 6 varieties of peppers and lots of flowers. My happy place! Zone 9B #veggiegarden #gardening #procrastination

In an attempt to maintain some sanity from the chaos created by this current administration, my husband and I wander in the desert to absorb its never-ending beauty. This morning we did a sunrise hike in Catalina State Park. Birding and Alamo Trails. #photography #sony #sony6700 #arizona #catalinasp

A lovely evening stroll with my favorite person/hubby through Catalina State Park. During this chaotic and destructive time in our country, I am able to find a teeny tiny bit of hope and peace in this gorgeous desert. #catalinaSP #arizona #sony6700 #sony #photography @desertcyclist.bsky.social

My last outing today with my 12 year Nikon DSLR. It has been well loved but I have decided to upgrade. This camera has been taken all over US/Canada/Mexico, South America, Africa, China, Europe and even Antarctica! It has never failed me. Thank-you old friend, thank-you! #photography #Nikon #Arizona
