The Commissioner of Washington state's Department of Natural Resources, Hilary Franz, has been on a morale tour after losing staff to her vaccine mandate. She originally reported only a handful of people "chose" to leave last year but accommodations are only now being officially denied. Protestors joined me today outside her meeting with staff in the Northeast Region. I was fired from that region for refusing to comply with their demand that I stop interviewing people who they said "undermined" the vaccine mandate at DNR. Franz is a likely frontrunner for Washington's next Governor. As DNR Chief she heads the state's wildland firefighting force.
The kids are practicing for their first rodeo. The event requires them to catch a goat and snatch a ribbon off its tail, then put the ribbon in a bucket and raise their hands to stop the clock. Fastest kid wins. Don’t ask me how they came up with this stuff. Today goat ribbons, tomorrow bucking broncs.
Last night was a long one as we attempted artificially inseminating Maisy for the 2nd time. The last go-round in August didn’t take. Maisy is an A2A2 jersey/dexter cross who is hopefully going to be our family milk cow someday. We are grateful for our AI tech @tessdariano who did 99% of the work. There was an ice cream truck circling the neighborhood while the mission was underway, blaring the traditional ice cream truck song, which made for a quite fitting background soundtrack. Three weeks and we should know if we have a lil’ Maisy on the way. Dad’s name is Billy the Kid. He’s quite handsome. Swim Billy, swim!

And in even better news:
HHS has also said it will end the practice of providing bonuses to doctors who vaccinate high percentages of their patients, and other financial incentives provided to doctors for vaccinations.
I am no fan of racist. However, it's an interesting bit of hypocrisy, that some people feel it's cool to take down sites of people they differ with. But, if those they differ with did the same to them. That would be a "hate crime". 🤔
