Last month’s fatal slide-off on Trough Road raises safety questions | Bird Feeder

When I was a kid living in southern New Hampshire, my family home was on the site of an abandoned farmstead consisting of massive stone foundations of quarried granite where dwellings once stood. Stone walls snaked throughout the forest. As I explored the deep woods of tall oaks and maples, I wondered about who had built these walls, and why. What stories did these walls contain?

There are some signs that such extremism is turning off voters; despite the media’s cheerleading, AOC has seen her popularity polls crater; it seems that the more sensible Americas see and hear of her, the less they like her. Which means there’s hope for the Republic yet—but this is no time to get complacent.

Thus, it would seem that Trump has been vindicated. Even some Democratic leaders are ready to accept Mueller's findings, including Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., who said Tuesday that the investigation is "a chapter that's closed."

Trump has been building his case for at least two years that the media are the “enemy of the people,” and most journalists have heard from his most avid supporters — either through social media or, in some instances, in person. This has always been a dangerous game for the president to play, but it can’t go unsaid that many prominent media organizations gave disproportionate attention to the Mueller investigation, in large part filling in gaps through speculation, supposition and hypotheticals.

Sandstone was coveted for its texture and ease of use. This sedimentary rock varies the constitution of its grains, producing different size, composition, shape, roughness and degree of dissolution. Shaping required only basic hand tools, such as a hammer and wide chisel, leaving curved fractures in its thick and rustic surface texture.

Chukars are not native to this country, they were introduced from Pakistan in the late 1800s and have naturalized in the high deserts of western North America. The reason I love them is because, like going on a snipe hunt, they are hard to find. According to the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology they have been nicknamed the “devil bird” due to the brutal chase it gives to hunters - they “run and scamper up steep terrain with the agility and speed of a mountain goat.” I can attest to that - we could hear them out in the scrub and would just miss seeing them as they ran along the desert floor, dodging among the sage and juniper, always just out of reach. They are also very striking birds. Chukars have distinctive plumage - a muted grayish-tan back and nape, dark bars on the sides and a black band across the head and down along the neck. Their call sounds like their name - echoing across the rocky slopes and through the canyonlands.
