@BridgetPhetasy I recently began a quest to explore and deepen my faith and came across Sarah Young devotionals( discovered on a Shawn Ryan podcast with a former Hells Angel chapter president).
When South African conservationist Lawrence Anthony, known as the “Elephant Whisperer”, passed away in 2012, something remarkable occurred.
Two separate herds of wild elephants he had once rescued made their way to his home at Thula Thula Reserve. They hadn’t visited the property in over 18 months. No one summoned them. No one guided them. Yet they came anyway.
For two full days, the elephants stood quietly near his house, as if paying their final respects to the man who had saved them.
A year later, they returned on the exact anniversary of his death. They came again the following year, and the year after that, as if mourning him like a member of their own family.
A beautiful and powerful reminder that the bonds of love, loyalty, and gratitude in the animal kingdom may run far deeper than we ever imagined.
Have you hugged a buffalo today? NO, NOT THAT KIND OF BUFFALO!
Meet the bigmouth buffalo, a native fish that can top 70 pounds and live 100+ years. They’re members of the sucker family and found throughout much of the Mississippi River basin.

My sympathy meter barely made it off zero after seeing your report on HVAC probs. in Henrico. Late 70’s Douglas Freeman had no ac in main building. Probably hit 100 in 2nd floor study hall on a Sept. afternoon.
We survived.

Did you know the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone is roughly 20 miles long?
This impressive canyon was formed by erosion as the Yellowstone River flowed over progressively softer, less resistant rock, and that process still continues today. The multi-hued rocks of the canyon result from the hydrothermally altered rhyolite and sediments. Look closely at dark orange, brown, and green areas near the river for still-active hydrothermal features!
@CCPISASSH0E Took my five year old son to the pumpkin carving contest the other day. Held his hand as we walked along looking at all the pumpkins entered into the contest…
He’s 36 now with a 2 year old and another on the way.
It goes way to quick 😐
