Three related drought refugee families stalled on the highway near Lordsburg, New Mexico. From farms near Claremore, Oklahoma. Have been working as migratory workers in Calfornia and Arizona, now trying to get to Roswell, New Mexico, for work chopping cotton. Have car trouble and pulled up alongside the highway. "Would go back to Oklahoma but can't get along there. Can't feed the kids on what they give you (relief budget) and ain't made a crop there you might say for five years. Only other work there is fifty cents a day wages and the farmers can't pay it anyways." One of these families has lost two babies since they left their home in Oklahoma. The children, seventeen months and three years, died in the county hospital at Shafter California, from typhoid fever, resulting from unsanitary conditions in a labor camp

Last week in Phoenix, AZ

It’s cold here in PA - my son’s soccer game in Maryland got canceled today because they received two inches of snow ❄️🥶
But I can't even imagine how challenging it must be for soccer kids in Arizona during the summer 🥵🤔

So many things we seek: success, knowledge, love, acceptance, possessions, skill, peace, understanding, security, warmth, beauty -- all good things, when we don't push others aside in order to reach them.

May we find joy and goodness.

Going through my photos from last October, I wondered if I could get this last long exposure of C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) over the Grand Canyon to popout of the horizonal haze by doing a little dodging and burning. The star trails are a little disappointing. I should have bumped up the ISO a bit, but I thought I wouldn't be using this photo given the comet was so buried in the haze. #NotAI
