Saturday We the People Want Hands Off Our Democracy In Downtown Wichita Falls

I previously made mention of wondering if Wichita Falls will join this coming Saturday's worldwide protests against the Trump Lunacy, in a blog post titled Final 2025 March Saturday At Sikes Lake.

Well, we now know there will be a protest in Wichita Falls on Saturday, with the theme being “We the People Want Hands Off Our Democracy.”

The protest Saturday will take place from 1 til 3 in the afternoon, at the park across the street from the building known as Big Blue, at the intersection of Scott Avenue and 8th Street.

I have not yet decided if I will be joining the protest...

No April Fooling Getting Wind Blown At Lake Wichita Park

It was to Lake Wichita Park I ventured on this first day of the fourth month of 2025.

The first day of April is being blustery at my North Texas location, with a cloud cover growing thicker, heading to predicted strong thunderstorms to begin booming later today.

I was not long out of my vehicle before quickly returning to remove the hat from atop my head, before a gust of wind could perform that service for me.

The Lake Wichita Park Veterans Memorial seemed sad to me, today, what with all the un-American nonsense going on. Arresting people without due process. Shipping the arrested out of the country to what amounts to being a concentration camp in El Salvador.

And as I was walking past the Veterans Memorial, listening to news on NPR, I heard a woman had been arrested in Georgia for not reporting a miscarriage. When will this insanity end?

 It has been quite some time since I have hiked to the summit of Mount Wichita. I had no moment of considering doing such today, what with it being hard to stay vertical whilst getting hit by wind gusts.

I suspect we are going to be having an exceptional stormy Spring, in multiple ways....
