Linda, a volunteer, was doing back breaking work planting.
"Camas (Camas quamash) marked with red flags, a beautiful blue spring flower. The bulbs were cultivated as a staple food by the Indigenous peoples as were the white flagged Nodding onion (Allium cernuum). The third plant a little higher on the hill is Hardhack (Spirea douglasii ssp douglasii)"

Red Flag RF12-3.
When the "Stingers" participated in the then still old color scheme.
Jean carried what mattered and brought her own light.

I am carrying grief, memory, and unfinished business from Khamis.
A few more cussing episodes and I believe I'll be all right.

Carrego comigo a saudade, as memórias e algumas histórias que ficaram por resolver.
Com mais alguns desabafos, algumas palavras menos elegantes e um pouco de tempo...
creio que ficarei bem.

The girl who got knocked
sideways by a rare signal from an Egyptian Air Force officer known to her
as Khamis
in 1979
and again in 1985
put the tea on,
opened her memory chest,
and wrote down
what she lived.

After a lifetime of building, she was ready to reduce the cargo and increase the range.
She wanted to keep what mattered, release what didn't, and travel light enough to see what was still waiting.
From George AFB to Malta.
From waitressing to archives.
From honey to warm wind.

“Haida artist Tamara Bell installs 215 shoes on the steps of Vancouver Art Gallery as a memorial to Indigenous children who died at residential schools”…
I took these last week, my first time downtown since February 2020. The memorial is heartbreaking and powerful.
This collage shows a portion of the small red flags across from the Art Gallery steps memorial. One for each child. I took these to honour all of the little children and their families. I was moved to tears as would anyone with a heart.

Honing the Art
An F-15C Eagle from the 433rd Weapons Squadron drops away from our tanker, during a Red Flag sortie over the Nellis Range. The "Satan's Angels" (433rd WPS) are the Weapons Instructor Course for the F-15C and F-22A. However, the Eagles were dropped from the syllabus back in 2021 as the retirement of the jets began.
Fishing boats in any port are always a lovely sight, but there’s something about these brightly coloured boats with their fluttering red flags that make the Vietnamese fleet quite special.
These boats, in a fishing village south of Nha Trang, usually head to the sea in the late afternoon and stay out all night, returning with their catches in the early morning. With a coastline of 3,260 kilometres, it’s estimated that the country’s fishing fleet comprises more than 120,000 boats like these (and some a lot smaller).
Caminho para trilha da Lagoinha do Leste
O nome Matadeiro é muito antigo, provém da época em que era permitido caçar baleias.
O caminho pitoresco e agreste atrai muitos turistas durante o verão, especialmente surfistas que fogem do agito das praias tradicionais em busca de boas ondas e areia calma.
Localizada entre as praias da Armação e Lagoinha do Leste, a praia do Matadeiro é relativamente tranquila, com acesso somente a pé, cerca de 200 metros, depois de atravessar o rio que vem da Lagoa do Peri.
Inacessível para carros, a praia ainda conserva seus morros cobertos pela mata nativa. É um convite para os apreciadores da natureza.
