    It’s pretty hazy in the Yellowstone country today too.

    An absolutely beautiful sunset in Lander, WY – thanks to the wildfires in CA – Very hazy here today, and watery eyes to go with it.

    We’re gonna class-action suit CA for not thinning their forests to prevent this shit (idiot tree-huggers)! We can’t breathe or see up here in Tahoe!

‎"At some point we must draw a line across the ground of our home and our being, drive a spear into the land and say to the bulldozers, earthmovers, government and corporations, “thus far and no further.” If we do not, we shall later feel, instead of pride, the regret of Thoreau, that good but overly-bookish man, who wrote, near the end of his life, “If I repent of anything it is likely to be my good behaviour."
