Off to 2024!

 

It was a great 2023, featuring fossil hunts, traveling north, south, and west, and overall stuff...LOL

Charging onto 2024!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

 

Christmas in Europe

 

This is what happens when you let nearly a million unvetted people into your country, Germany.  Police are patrolling Christmas markets to prevent bombings.  This something that never happened before 2015 when then-Chancellor Angela Merkle, with no vote or debate, let tons of people into the country.  Now there have been terrorist attacks and the country seems to be rudderless.

Three terrorists were caught in Germany planning attacks along with one other from the Netherlands, who was extradited to Berlin.  Denmark caught three others as well.

Meanwhile, the Border Patrol found 10 improvised explosive devices (IEDs) carried by people walking over the border.

Rule #1 of any government is to protect its people.  Biden clearly is not interested in doing it.  If he is not removed, make him irrelevant by ignoring anything coming out of DC.  Worked for India and the Canadian truckers started the downfall of COVID with peaceful resistance.  Time to do it again to save the country. 

No violence, no revolution.  Just non-cooperation until they do their jobs.

The 2024 election is going to be very interesting...

Back from AZ!

 

Chelly and I were out in Arizona for a couple of weeks, romping around the Superstition Mountains.  We generally stay on the front side of the mountains.  My favorite trial--#56--goes a little behind, but not too far.  Too many rumors of people falling in crevices and cliffs back there!

Haven't seen any lizard people or aliens though.

Naturally we arrive home just in time to see the Arizona Cardinals beat Pittsburgh :-(

It was a little chilly by AZ standards and some people, seeing my Penguins cap, accused me of bring "Pennsylvania weather" to the desert.  Well, they got the last laugh with the Cardinals winning in Pittsburgh...

 Naturally, the cats were upset we had left without permission.

We got them the food they like and we might be forgiven.

Maybe :-)
