A peaceful moment for us today

“Here is your country. Cherish these natural wonders, cherish the natural resources, cherish the history and romance as a sacred heritage, for your children and your children's children. Do not let selfish men or greedy interests skin your country of its beauty, its riches or its romance.” —Theodore Roosevelt

Your pictures provide a very welcome moment for centering when the rush of bad news in the morning feels overwhelming.

Love the quote, too.

And a warning that worries me with asshole usurping our White House. Teddy was very wise to issue such a warning!
