This past fall I noticed so many trees that had crazy amount of fruit.

Gonna try this here first - anybody want a rain barrel?

We’ve been using them to catch the drips from our AC units & we got the lines rerouted and don’t need the one by the trash cans any longer #rva

Does anyone actually enjoy hibiscus tea? Recommended for health- maybe need to try different brand or flavor?

Because of the weather, John Hiatt and I postponed tonight’s show at the Waterville Opera House, in Waterville, Maine, to Monday, March 2. We’re sorry for any inconvenience. We look forward to seeing you next week.

Bruce Springsteen - Streets Of Minneapolis (Official Audio) YouTube video by Bruce Springsteen

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

For 25 years, the Roadless Rule has protected nearly 45 million acres of national forests, including 400,000 acres in Virginia. Now, the Trump Administration threatens to rescind it.

I joined @kaine.senate.gov , @selcandk.bsky.social conservation advocates to vow to protect our public lands.

Hope our Governor- Elect Abigail has as much fun being sworn in this Saturday as she did with Stephen Colbert on The Late Show. @abigailspanberger.com

After immigration policy changes under the Trump administration, they were given a choice. Leave voluntarily, or risk a worse outcome. So they self deported. Almost overnight, their business closed and they were gone.

What was the point?

Hat pins?

Minnesota! I am obsessed with how adorable this dog is. He is still available for some reason. And you can trust John. Please consider bringing The Professor into your family so that you can supply me with pictures of him forever.

Thank you for reminding us of your friend. His presence on twitter was felt by many.

The best! Watching a 1983 rerun of Mr. Rogers touring a graham cracker factory. #VPM, @pbs
