Fighting #Fracking

Our dedicated group
Fighting fracking pipeline 
Through Monkton Vermont
Is asking for help...
Please consider if you are able...
Updates too.
2017 winding down.
Thinking of the Fracking fighters tonight.

Update: PLEASE CONSIDER A HOLIDAY DONATION TO OUR WORK!!   https://www.gofundme.com/stopvermontpipeline
We continue this fight because we feel an obligation to protect public safety. Our small organization has subpoenaed thousands of pages from Vermont Gas about the shallow burial of the pipeline under streams and in a swamp. We have discovered that VGS altered safety specs as they went along to make it cheaper and easier.  We are poring over the documents. Our fearless lawyer, Jim Dumont, has interviewed several companies that worked on the pipeline, and yesterday he took a 4-hour deposition of the construction superintendent--hetold us the construction company had virtually no records! So now we have to go hunting for the records. Please help us pay for this very expensive undertaking! https://www.gofundme.com/stopvermontpipeline

This photo is of the pipeline under water in a swamp.

Last Season


Looking for something to post,
No cold weather reminders. 
The Cold reminding us 
Relentlessly,
in these,
The Darkest Day’s of Winter.
Here was a nice one I found.

Travelogue for the Universe: Psalm Challenge 85

Psalm Challenge 85


Christmas is coming, 
Daylight growing,
Gifts are flowing, 
The tree is up.

The Sun above us, 
a good provider,
shines his gifts of 
warmth and power.

In the Heavens, all around us, 
lies the home of all the Justice.
We Pray for Peace.
We ask for Mercy, 
We want Salvation, 
to rise up through our feet from the earthen ground.

Rainy days, brings flowers, food, 
We take time out to nap.
Later gather the bounty in our garden,
We know no money could ever buy.

We ache for our country,
Sometimes afflicted 
with the opposite of
truth and peace.

We pray salvation,
comes on swiftly,
slaying the greedy, evil and arrogant beasts.

how else would peace be possible except by the death of evil?
Can we pray for such a death sentence to evil?
