Wowwwee Cat, that was an OUTSTANDING #walkwithme, I loved every minute of it. You know so much about the nature and animals in that area, I'm impressed.
My favourite would have to be your ending, EFF NESTLE! And omg..yea, between the golf course and the polo club...we know what's important and valued in our sick society hey? Shaking my head in disgust.
Thank you! I truly love the underrated scrublands of my inland so-cal home! I have learned so much as an amateur naturalist and anthropologist, observing and then looking things up on the internet.
I used to resist thinking of myself as a San Bernardinian. Now I embrace this brokeass city and huge county, and its marvelous gems!
I wish the best for the Native Americans stewarding their ancestral lands. It angers me when the "official history " such as my source for Edward Daley states that a fort was built to defend from "hostile Indians." The "Serrano" (Spanish for "mountain") Indians lived off the fat of the land here, and had no wish to be imprisoned in the San Gabriel Concentration Camp- er- I mean "Mission". Luckily their casinohas really uplifted them from abject poverty, and they are very generous in developing the city.
Down with Nestle in any case, tho. They don't view water as a human right, and are busy buying water rights to the melting poles! Vulture capitalism is demeaning to vultures, who never harmed a living soul ;)
Much love
So similar to the horrific genocide of the Natives in Canada too... :'( I wish they could get back to their land, and become stewards again...
