4th of July Double Rainbow Surprise



We enjoyed a full-sky panoramic double rainbow on the Fourth of July - but we did not have as much fun as the Rainbow Gathering, dancing in the mud up in the Jemez mountains.






"Waiting On The World To Change"

Me and all my friends
We're all misunderstood
They say we stand for nothing and
There's no way we ever could

Now we see everything that's going wrong
With the world and those who lead it
We just feel like we don't have the means
To rise above and beat it

So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

It's hard to beat the system
When we're standing at a distance
So we keep waiting
Waiting on the world to change

Now if we had the power
To bring our neighbors home from war
They would have never missed a Christmas
No more ribbons on their door
And when you trust your television
What you get is what you got
Cause when they own the information, oh
They can bend it all they want

That's why we're waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

It's not that we don't care,
We just know that the fight ain't fair
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

And we're still waiting
Waiting on the world to change
We keep on waiting waiting on the world to change
One day our generation
Is gonna rule the population
So we keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

We keep on waiting
Waiting on the world to change

Scorpion Weed: Don't Touch This

I foolishly pulled up this weed which is growing all over the place this year, and that was a mistake.

It gave me a horrible itchy blistery rash like poison ivy -- I was in urgent care on the 4th of July instead of enjoying the famous Corrales parade. Turns out this is likely the culprit for my three years of "plague" - I had no idea...this year was the worst ever.
