For Nola, the White Rhino who died November 23rd at the San Diego Zoo. There are now only three remaining White Rhinos left in the world... #Nola4Ever #EndExtinction
For those of you farther from home, the three young firefighters remembered above, recently lost their lives while keeping our community safe. Famous is a poem that Tom Zbyszewski, a local kid working summer fires, performed in his state finals for Poetry Out Loud in the spring of 2013. He may also have performed it here at Twisp's Merc Theater, as I swear that I can picture him reciting it.
A silent shout. A stand. JE SUIS CHARLIE.
The wolf "recovery" in eastern Washington hit another large snag last week with the complete and total elimination of the Stevens County Wedge Pack. Thor and Melanie pay some tribute here and hope for better days.
For the last week, I have been humbled and awed, saddened and inspired, by my return to teaching in a high school art room. Tragically, Sean McCabe, the beloved art teacher at Liberty Bell High School, was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of thyroid cancer. It has been my sincere pleasure to fill in for him in this time of need.
He has spent a career giving of himself, and the inspiration - both artistically and personally - that he provides for so many is a force to be reckoned with. Rest easy Sean. Be well, and fight like the Giant that you are in so many other ways!
