I hate to have to use professional channels for this, but apparently it's "bullying" and "derogatory" to call sociopathic behavior what it is, and it's problematic to inform the nearby community of this threat. This little menace broke into my vehicle and stole $30 from my purse. His friend confessed to me, but this one convinced him not to give it back. He clearly does this often. Here he is ignoring me while I asked him where my money is. I'm trying to find his parents so they know exactly how he spends all his unsupervised hours, and I would like my money back. I don't have a lot of money. There are times when I don't even have $30 to my name (like earlier this year), and it's unreasonable that my hard-earned money be stolen with no recourse. Yet here we are, with Nancy from the Friends of Salem Woods, protecting him from the consequences of his actions and silencing the victim.

Just wanted to put this out there: we do not support the Warren exhibit or Matt Rife. Salem has too many bad actors profiting off the 'spooky' vibe without giving back to the community, but some people only care about money and not where it comes from.

I made it to sunny in time for the Florida Earthskills Gathering. We arrived the night before the event opened, and we took a / trip down the with friends. The weather was beautiful, and I took an impromptu swim in the river. Thank goodness for waterproof, floating phone cases. So much to see, too.

I'm a few days late with my salutations, but it's meant a lot that I could experience winter for the first time since 2020. The days often seem bleak after the holidays, when the daylight hours are only beginning to return, but I find a lot of beauty in ice formations, and the way they change as they melt. I love how quiet things are in the . I love how blue everything is. I love finding around the city, and exploring everything covered in snow.

We are halfway to Spring now, ¼ of the way to the Summer Solstice. Use this time to rest and recharge your soul.
