Found Art Friday 243

Dear ones,
Are you up for it? Shall we continue?  Okay then - we can't help but watch out for art as we go about our everyday existence, so here we go a launching into a 9th year of doing this blog.  Art Ranger will continue to post somewhat weekly from her standing desk at The Department of Homeland Inspiration, wearing her Research and Development vest and a National Sanity Administration Hat.  And you, friends, will hopefully participate by seeing the world slightly differently as you go wiggling along your section of planet and occasionally you'll send pictures to The Art Ranger for our inclusion and consideration.  Pretty please - Or, ugly please, funny please, surprising please?, outrageous please ...... yes, do it!

Bad Remodel expression

Oh yes, regarding The Bad Remodel of our government, this week we mourn the poisoning planet via ocean drilling plans, as well as the ripping off regular people plan, not to mention........... too many things to mention. ...

If rocks could talk - they would have that day said "Get the %&# off my back" people!

Recently, we attempted to be at Joshua Tree National Park on a day in which there were more people than rocks.  A Disneyification of the landscape and that which we crave to be our "nature" was out of proportion.  By the time our vehicle was finally parked, we wanted to get in a fetal position amongst the rock caves and wait it out, for years.  Yah - all the stupid stuff.  On the way back to the cars we picked up shiny food wrappers visible from outer space.
