I'm new here. Here's my #introduction. 🌱

My name is Mim; I live in a tiny apartment in a tiny village amongst the fields and farms of rural #Nebraska.

I love sewing, drawing, playing the piano, baking, and crafting. I'm doing the #OdinProject with my daughter to refresh and relearn web development, the newest challenge in my life.

I believe in #manners, #creativity, #honesty, #positivity, #humor, #kindness, and #imagination.

I look forward to meeting you! 🌱

Dorothea Lange

Farmer from Nebraska in emergency camp for migratory workers during pea harvesting says "I put mine in what I thought was the best investment -- the good old earth--but we lost on that, too. The finance company caught up with us, the mortgage company caught up with us. Managed to lose twelve thousand dollars in three years. My boys have no more future than I have so far as I can see ahead." He had been on the road a little less than a year. Calipatria, Imperial County, California

A black and white photograph of a man standing outdoors in a rural setting. He is wearing a wide-brimmed hat, overalls with vertical stripes, and has his hands on his hips. Behind him, there's an RV or trailer parked alongside the road. In the distance, another building can be seen through the sparse vegetation. The photo appears to have been taken during World War II era based on its style and quality. There is text overlay at the top of the image with a date "3-82016," suggesting it's either from that period or digitally altered for context.

Right now, the Sandhill Cranes are moving back to fields adjacent to the Platte River. At and just after sunset, they'll fly from those fields into the Platte to overnight. I watched them last Monday & Tuesday evening, and it was mighty impressive. We're past peak, but you can still see and hear flocks fly in the distance. It should get better around 8pm CDT. I'll post some of my own vids from last week soon. In the meantime, #CraneCam is good to watch right after sunset when the cranes come in; and just after sunrise when they slowly leave the river.

"I scoured the news for reports on the more than one thousand other rallies. Of course people would show up in the big cities & the bluest places, but what really exhilarated me was to see the turnout in reddest America--#Utah, #Nebraska, #Missouri, #Indiana, #Iowa, #Idaho--and small communities not known for their #protests...

some early estimates say well over three million people showed up."

Social media post by Rep Zooey Zephyr with text and photo. Text: Great showing at Missoula's Hands Off rally today. It was an honor to get to speak briefly, and to introduce the folks doing amazing work on the ground here in Missoula. Photo: Shot from above shows a mass of people in front of an old fashioned building, probably a city government building.
