Personal highlights from...
Red vs Blue The Ultimate Fan Guide
In honor of s19 and the continuation of where s13 left off, here are some highlights from the ultimate fan guide published back in 2015. I've been re-watching the show and it made me want to flip back through the guide. (Everything is sort of in the order it appears in the book, with a few exceptions)
Delta appears as a guide of sorts with fun facts
Caboose's position is listed as "Team Rookie/Occasional Captain/ Church's Best Friend" (it is actually struck out in the book)
He is also the only one listed with the title Captain, appearing as "Private/Captain Michael J. Caboose" (due to Wash "promoting" him, in the canyon on chorus)
Tucker is "Private First Class", Church, Donut, and Simmons are "Private"s, Sarge is listed as a "Colonel" under rank (the other Red's and Blue's ranks appears with their name while his is under "position"), and Grif is "Minor Junior Private, Negative First Class"
Wash used to be a chronic bed wetter (thanks D)
There's also a six page transcript of his psych eval prior to PF where we find out he injured a commanding officer because he wanted to "send everyone to their deaths", he also put a former bully through a mirror in fifth-grade
Grif is stated to have been assigned to Blood Gulch because he was the only survivor of an alien attack on a colony during the great war, he fell asleep at his post and everyone assumed he was KIA
Donut's position is listed as "On all fours... cleaning Red bade"
Doc's profile is "Doc/ O'Malley" and the whole thing lists both their interests, i.e "Position: Canyon Medic, Galactic Overlord"
Andy's (the bomb) name is "Andrew D. Kaboom"
Sheila and Filss share a page
Tex's notable attributes are "Kicking ass (and nuts), being a mean lady, and resurrection"
The password to unlock the file on Beta that CT left behind was "Allison" (Thanks again D)
York's page comments "Several reports were filed against Agent York claiming he and Agent Carolina had something of a "personal" relationship [...] Freelancer Command was unable to find any proof to support these accusations."
One of his notable attributes is "watching his right side" and his position is "team scoundrel"
Eta and iota (Carolina's AIs) were "fear and happiness"
According to the official time line, Carolina was around 6 when Allison died (Allison died 23 years before Blood Gulch and Carolina was born 29 years before)
Wyoming's real name is Reginald
South Dakota's Status is listed as "Extra Crispy"
Smith once spent two days contemplating in silence what Caboose meant when he said his favorite color was "Happy"
Dr. Grey's position is "(Mad) Doctor", she was considered a prodigy at age 11 when she diagnosed every patient in House M.D. within five minutes of their introduction, and she thinks Grey's Anatomy is "far too trite"
Felix and Locus' names are listed as Unknown in the book, but I do believe their names were revealed in a s14 episode
The counselor advised the director to tell Tex that Alpha was in Blood Gulch to protect him and stop her from investigating the project
Notable Features of Blood Gulch include "Avoid Tucker's Rock at all costs, as it has not been properly sterilized"
BTS from D: The opening shot of Season 6 was created by shooting players moving in different quadrants and combining the shots"
Important events at High Ground, "Washington killed Agent south in cold blood- with a much less cold flamethrower."
Fact from D: "Once a year, Reds and Blues stationed at Rat's Nest still pay tribute to Agent Alabama by sending a flaming mongoose soaring through the night sky."
Donut likes to spend his leisure time in Federal Army Outpost 37, in the jail cells in handcuffs
The statistics pages, 9 pages of stats from number of robots murdered (112) to Church's sniper rifle accuracy (9.3%)
Bow Chicka Bow Wow was first said in season 4, and Simmons never sucked up in season 12, season one had the most "son of a bitch"s at 14 Donut made 32 accidental innuendos, and the odd number of pedals in vehicles was called out on five occasions Tucker has the highest kill count of all reds and blues (counting wash and Tex), at 24 followed by donut at 22 and Tex at 21, Caboose is the lowest at 2 raised by Lopez and 3 and Church at 8 Sarge has threatened/wished death on Grif 56 times, and Donut has nearly died five times Seasons 2 and 9 had the lowest kill counts Carolina had the highest flash back kills at 68 in season ten, and the twins are tied at 23 kills in season nine
Tex's attack to free Alpha was 2 years before Blood Gulch, the great war ended 1 year after Alpha arrived in Blood Gulch and after the Wyoming incident in Blood Gulch (where they tried to kidnap junior), Chorus takes place 5 years after Alpha initially arrived in Blood Gulch
The mission books has adorable illustrations (they look like Caboose's guides from s14)
There's a mindmap for all the Leonard and Allison iterations and they they connect
Sarge has a guide on how to build a robot, scented lube is preferred, along with mad scientist goggles, a cup of baking soda, and seventeen tablespoons of sugar
More silly plans with fun diagrams
Donut's diary, D tells us that Donut washes his underwear on tuesday's
Caboose's Wisdom section on: feelings, relationships, army etiquette (including gems like crayons don't work as bullets. Use markers.), life, and the reds and blues
Simmons made a text based adventure games
BTS from D, the story of Simmons refusing to go to the Vegas Quadrant is a reference to Gus Sorola (Simmons' VA) refusing to go to Las Vegas with the rest of the rvb creators
You can find the case against Sergeant Grif from the reds at rat's Nest (he was selling red team's ammo to Caboose before he was locked up in the brig, Private Jones wore a wire tap to help the red's catch Grif's under the table dealings)
Leonard met Allison in the mess hall during basic training where he pissed off another recruit and Allison had to save his ass (Church was right, Carolina get's her temper from her mom)
I'm Church. private Church. Leonard. Leonard Church." the only thing I cared about in that moment was that she knew my name. She smiled. Her smile could light up solar systems. "Kind of a funny name. Church." "It's Jewish."
I spent the rest of basic chasing after her. In some ways, I never stopped.
Here's hoping non of our beloved idiots die in season 19! I mean, I know Church will be gone, but the others... they deserve a happy ending.
Also I miss the freelancers and AI...

why marijuana should be legal
Tumblr media
Throughout the course of recent years, states have been casting a ballot to decriminalise marijuana, making it legitimate for both restorative and sporting purposes — and furthermore making it a major business. Following some guidelines from Colorado or Washington's experience, four states — New Jersey, South Dakota, Montana, and Arizona — passed measures in 2022 to make marijuana utilisation for sporting purposes legitimate.
Marijuana is the most regularly involved unlawful medication on the planet with an expected 125 million individuals consuming it in some structure or the other consistently. In India, marijuana use has been generally bound to confidence and magic. It is supposed to be a medication that assists the client with accomplishing "happiness in the first feeling of the word". India has consumed and celebrated chars (hash), bhang and weed for quite a long time.
Be that as it may, execution of rigid opiate regulations in 1986 made the deal, utilization, creation and transportation of marijuana unlawful in the country. 24 years on, the following are 10 justifications for why marijuana ought to now be legitimized in India.
1. It will kill unlawful exchange and partner wrongdoings
Marijuana sanctioning (or decriminalization) will supplant the bootleg market creation and dispersion with an 'over the edge business'. There will be rules and guidelines however the exchange will be 'populated by the public authority, ranchers, shippers and retail assistants, not by lawbreakers or street pharmacists'.
2. Marijuana habit is interesting
An epidemiological review showed that 9% of the individuals who use marijuana turn out to be clinically reliant upon it. The 'equivalent rates' for tobacco, liquor and cocaine remained at 32%, 15% and 16 percent individually.
3. Burdening marijuana will expand government's income
By authorising and burdening marijuana, the public authority will remain to procure colossal measures of income that will in any case go to the Italian and Israeli medication cartels. In an open letter to US President George Bramble, around 500 financial experts, driven by Nobel Prize champ Milton Friedman, called for marijuana to be "lawful yet burdened and controlled like different merchandise".
4. It will set out work open doors
Authorization of marijuana for sporting and clinical purposes in Colorado has made 10,000 new positions nearby. There are plenty of occupations that can be made by the marijuana business and assist with decreasing India's joblessness rate.
5. Marijuana use has health advantages
Studies have shown that marijuana use has many health advantages. It treats glaucoma, keeps malignant growth from spreading to different pieces of the body, lessens uneasiness, eases back the advancement of Alzheimer's illness, further develops digestion and is even said to prod imagination in our mind.
6. It will help local people
Tumblr media
In states like Himachal Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, where cannabis plants develop, marijuana is the main type of revenue for some local people. Nonetheless, being a prohibited substance, the ranchers are compelled to offer it at an exceptionally modest cost to the street pharmacists and they face extra tension from the police too, who are paid to obliterate the cannabis estates. Legitimising marijuana will end this 'battle on medications' focusing on our own comrades.
7. Legitimization will guarantee that great quality marijuana is offered to the buyers
In India, sellers frequently blend hash and weed in with synthetic compounds or different medications like afeem to work on the taste, variety, surface or 'high' of the stuff. Legitimization will work on the nature of marijuana offered to the clients since the government will manage the creation and offer of the medication.
8. Marijuana has restricted withdrawal side effects and its utilisation can't be deadly
"I've heard you need to smoke something like 15,000 joints shortly to get a harmful measure of delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol," says Dr. Paul Hornby, a natural chemist and human pathologist. "I challenge anyone to do that." Not exclusively is it essentially difficult to overdose on marijuana, the clients face ostensible withdrawal side effects subsequent to consuming it.
9. Disallowance has neglected to control the utilisation and homegrown creation of marijuana
It is said that 60,000 kgs of hash and 40,000 kgs of opium is delivered in Himachal Pradesh. Out of that, the main 500 kgs is seized every year. According to reports, "in excess of 1,600 hectares of cultivable farmland and 500 extra hectares of unlawfully felled public woodlands are right now under cannabis development". The rate is just expanding. In addition, nowadays, it is quite simple to purchase marijuana in India and its utilization is far and wide among the adolescent. So any reasonable person would agree that disallowance has neglected to control the 'issue'.
10. Marijuana is less destructive than liquor
Marijuana utilization was never viewed as a socially freak conduct anything else than drinking liquor was. Keeping it lawful was considered as an 'edified view, as a matter of fact'. It is presently medicinally demonstrated that marijuana is less destructive than liquor. Dissimilar to drunkards, stoners don't enjoy rash driving or vicious battles. They will generally be mollusk and lovely affected by marijuana.

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN
August 4, 2021
Heather Cox Richardson
Today seemed to mark a popular backlash against Republican lawmakers who have been downplaying the coronavirus pandemic. The Delta variant of the deadly virus is ripping through unvaccinated populations in the U.S. with an average of 85,000 new cases a day, numbers that rival those of February, before we had accessible vaccines. One in three cases in the nation comes from either Florida or Texas.
Lawmakers in South Carolina, Iowa, Florida, Oklahoma, Texas, Arizona, and Utah have prohibited schools from requiring masks, and South Carolina, Iowa, Florida, Montana, Arizona, South Dakota, Texas, and Tennessee prohibit local governments from doing so.
Yesterday, President Joe Biden called out governors, especially Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Texas Governor Greg Abbott, for banning mask mandates and refusing to require the vaccine. At a press conference, Biden said “to these governors, ‘Please, help.’ But if you aren’t going to help, at least get out of the way of the people who are trying to do the right thing. Use your power to save lives.”
Today DeSantis responded: “I am standing in your way.” After sitting on Biden’s criticism for almost a day, DeSantis could find as a response only an attack on Biden for allegedly ignoring the “border crisis.” DeSantis blamed Florida’s devastating virus numbers on immigrants coming over the nation’s border with Mexico into Texas.
The recent attention to the methods of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who rose to power by stoking anti-immigrant hatred and who continues to whip up a frenzy over immigration despite the fact that refugees coming into Hungary have dropped to unremarkable levels, shows the Republican fallback on immigrant caravans to distract from their own scandals in a new light.
In fact, our southern border remains closed because of public health directives put in place by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Unaccompanied minors are admitted so that they do not become victims of gangs or sex traffickers, and their numbers likely hit an all-time high of about 19,000 in July. Those children are processed and then transferred to facilities run by the Department of Health and Human Services, which then finds suitable foster situations for them while they await immigration hearings.
Interestingly in terms of the timing of DeSantis’s outburst, today the Mexican government sued a number of U.S.-based gun manufacturers for lax controls that permit illegal weapons to flow over the border. A 2016 study by the U.S. Government Accountability Office showed that about 70% of the weapons seized in Mexico came from the United States.
Back in the U.S., the president has mandated vaccines in the federal government and has asked private employers to require vaccines. Google, Walmart, Disney World, and Microsoft, among many others, including hospitals and more than 400 private universities, are requiring masks or vaccines. So is Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker, who today issued a mask requirement for schools and a vaccine mandate for workers in state prisons and other facilities.
By Labor Day, the Food and Drug Administration is expected to give final approval to coronavirus vaccines, reassuring people reluctant to get the vaccine that it is safe.
Increasingly, people dying of Covid-19 or their survivors are publicly begging their friends and neighbors to get the vaccine. In addition to videos and facebook posts, a six-minute television segment on CBS This Morning featured Republican Representative Julia Letlow of Louisiana, who lost her husband to the disease in December. She is using her story to try to change people’s minds about refusing the vaccine.
Implied in these calls to ignore the disinformation out there about the vaccine is criticism of those Republican leaders who have pushed that disinformation.
Rising case numbers put lawmakers who have downplayed the virus in a tight spot. A new poll today from St. Pete Polls shows that DeSantis’s popularity has fallen behind that of a Democratic rival, Charlie Crist, in the 2022 governor’s race. Forty-nine percent of Floridians disapprove of DeSantis’s job performance, while only 44% approve. He is in positive numbers only with voters older than 70. In contrast to the older folks, most voters disapprove of his opposition to masks in schools.
Other Republican governors have expressed regret that they were so quick to outlaw masks. Arkansas governor Asa Hutchinson today said he wished he hadn’t signed into law a measure banning state and local mask mandates. He has called the legislature into special session to change the law, claiming that he signed the previous measure because “I knew it would be overridden by the legislature if I didn't sign it.”
The new spike in infections has meant an uptick in vaccinations, with numbers matching those of early July. On Tuesday, Jeff Zients, the White House’s coronavirus response coordinator, reported that Louisiana has seen a 302% increase in the average number of newly vaccinated per day; Mississippi, 250%; Alabama, 215%; and Arkansas, 206%. On Tuesday, almost a month late, the nation met the goal President Joe Biden had set for July 4 of having at least one vaccine shot in 70% of eligible Americans. About 49% of all eligible Americans have been fully vaccinated.
Today, two parents of school-aged children in Arkansas sued the state over its law banning the use of masks in schools. They are seeking immediate “protection from an irrational act of legislative madness that threatens K-12 public school children with irreparable harm.” “Without immediate intervention by the Arkansas judiciary,” the lawsuit says, “the restrictions imposed on state and local officials by Act 1002 will result in many more Arkansas children becoming very sick, and some of them will inevitably die.”

Page 12: Celebrity Buzz -- Heidi Montag in a bikini at the beach (picture), Ben Affleck's bachelor brother Casey Affleck might be breaking the almighty unwritten Bro Code by openly gushing over Ben's ex Ana de Armas -- Casey even dared to plug Ana's upcoming performance as Marilyn Monroe saying she'll win every single award -- he also said Ana was the sweetest and funniest and smartest and most charming person, Dan Stevens' next role is a spirited sex romp with a ghostly ex in Blithe Spirit based on a Noel Coward play in which a man with writer's block conjures up the ghost of his dead first wife during a seance, boxing champ Floyd Mayweather TKO'd rampant rumors he proposed matrimony to his stripper girlfriend Anna Monroe, Ricky Martin's dark beard didn't suddenly just grow white as snow -- he bleached it

with Menominee. This encounter was considered a nonconference game, while the rematch in Menominee on Oct. 9 will be a Great Northern Conference game.
The Redmen were originally scheduled to host Gladstone in a GNC contest, but the Braves had to pull out of the game when it was announced a coronavirus test came back positive at the Delta County school.
Marquette’s high-powered offense had a big night with quarterback Austin Ridl finishing 10 of 19 passing for 229 yards and a touchdown along with four carries for 65 yards and a touchdown.
Wide receiver Kam Karp also had a strong performance, hauling in three passes for 112 yards and a TD.

The Redmen got on the scoreboard first with a 58-yard run by Ridl and extra point making it 7-0 late in the first quarter. After Menominee answered with a touchdown a couple minutes later, Marquette struck again early in the second quarter on a 6-yard run by Brady Wright and with the PAT kick, led 14-6.
Marquette scored again before halftime on a run by Owen Beauchamp. Teammate Truman Langlois picked off a Menominee pass in the end zone to preserve the Redmen’s 21-6 halftime lead.
Karp kept the Marquette offense rolling in the second half with a 49-yard scoring run as the Redmen padded their advantage to 28-6. The Maroons trimmed Marquette’s lead with a touchdown with less than five minutes remaining in the third quarter, but the Redmen shook it off.
Ridl scored from 12 yards out to extend the lead to 34-12 heading into the fourth, and Desmond Mullen put the game away with a long punt return for a touchdown.
Marquette plays Sault Ste. Marie at 6 p.m. Friday.

This is among the reasons the cooking scene is such a big deal-- there are much more ingredients in the pantry to pull from. With four first-rate sporting activities teams, a spirited arts scene and a vibrant beachfront with its very own flight terminal, Toronto makes both a gratifying end destination and an excellent pitstop.

Doug Wallace, our citizen specialist, supplies his top tips on the best things to do and also puts to eat and drink this period.
Consume
Canada's initial Eataly (55 Bloor St. W.; 00 1 437 374 0250) has opened up in the ManuLife Centre to much excitement and also more than a couple of crowds. Spanning 50,000 square feet over 3 levels, the Italian marketplace brings the preference of Italy home to Yorkville's Mink Mile.

Get pampered via customised body therapies and facials in 10 areas, plus pre- and post-stay lounges with views of the lake. - The very best things to do in Toronto
Drink
Don't let the false front of Vatican Gift Store (1047 Gerrard St. E.; 00 1 416 462 2682) mislead you: the makeshift gift store opens speakeasy-style to expose a low-lit Gothic secluded administering European and regional brews, clever (as well as solid) mixed drinks as well as thin-crust, hand-tossed Neopolitan pizzas.

Supper reservations tonight are at Constantine (15 Charles. St. E.; 00 1 647 475 4436), a little piece of Italian-Mediterranean paradise in the back of Anndore Home. Just move up front to the cocktail bar for a nightcap or stroll a brief block east to the Gay Town for a drag show at Woody's (467 Church St.; 00 1 416 972 0887).
- The most effective dining establishments in Toronto
Day 2
MORNING
The most effective time to get your photo taken in the "O" of the Toronto indicator at City Hall (100 Queen St. W. at Bay St.) remains in the morning prior to any individual else is around. Get a quick chai latte initially at Bannock (401 Bay St.; 00 1 416 861 6996).
Post photoshoot, it's a 15-minute walk to a healthy breakfast at Karine's (109 McCaul St.; 00 1 416 591 0863), a little food court serving morning meal staples with a side of Center Eastern, along with vegan and gluten-free, treats. Satisfied, you can then do a deep-dive right into the long-term collection (or exploring exhibits) nearby at the age-old Art Gallery of Ontario (317 Dundas St. W.; 00 1 416 979 6648).
AFTERNOON
On via Chinatown currently to the bohemian neighbourhood of Kensington Market (Kensington Ave. as well as Dundas. St. W.) to take a look at its indie society, vintage garments shops as well as art rooms. While you're there, put into a piled-high hamburger at Ozzy's Hamburgers (66 1/2 Nassau St.; 00 1 416 862 7983)-- have the Mustang Sally.
Stroll it off by heading back down to Queen St. W. and also shopping your means westward-- both sides of the street, mind you-- completely to Trinity Bellwoods Park (790 Queen St. W. at Strachan Ave.). Must-stops in the process must consist of: Frank as well as Oak for men's and also ladies's clothing and also possibly a quick haircut (735 Queen St. W.; 00 1 647 930 8711), Zane for the developer jewelry and desirable bags (753 Queen St. W.; 00 1 647 352 9263) and the shoe heaven that is Heel Kid (773 Queen St. W.; 00 1 416 362 4335).
LATE
Supper is also westward this evening, but first, choose of fresh margaritas or tequila shots at Reposado (136 Ossington St.; 00 1 416 532 6474) or a couple of Rust and also Bone cocktails at The Drake Hotel (1150 Queen St. W.; 00 1 416 531 5042), whose bartenders virtually created the craft mixed drink scene in Toronto
Then for a little taste of Argentina at Tanto (74 Ossington Ave.; 00 1 416 546 3022). Fill out on the innovative little plates-- such as the spicy beef empanada with paprika aioli or smoked squid covered with pancetta as well as scorched almond salsa-- then just share one primary.
Later, take your pick of the area's live songs areas: a burlesque program at the saucy Painted Lady (218 Ossington Ave.), classic blues or people at The Dakota Pub (249 Ossington Ave.; 00 1 416 850 4579) or an indie band at The Fort (1197 Dundas St. W.; 00 1 416 519 9439).
- The very best night life in Toronto.
When to go ...
Might to October is the best time to visit Toronto, while the sun is out, the dining establishment patio areas are jumping, as well as everyone gets on the street after a lengthy winter season cooped inside. June, July and also August are usually hot and humid, 30 levels seems like 40 levels. On summertime weekend breaks, residents go out of community to their homes, leaving the city streets (and dining establishment chairs) to you. Summer season is additionally when most of the city's festivals are slated, focusing on food as well as beverage, arts and also theater, multiculturalism, songs as well as movie.

Sociopath Profile: Agent South Dakota
Tumblr media
Recovery Two Face (left) and full armor (right) From the web-series Red vs. Blue (2003- present[valid as of late early February 2020]) Voiced by Shana Merlin First appearance: “Recovery One: Part Two”
South, in spite of her sympathetic qualities, shows many sociopathic traits. And some of those end up negating her sympathetic qualities to some degree.
[SPOILERS BELOW]
First off, on her mission with North in the beginning of Season 9, she shows herself to be rather impulsive. She repeatedly ignores her brother’s orders and continues to do her own thing even though it ends up endangering the mission. In general, she’s very hot-headed which is a stark contrast to her brother, North.
There’s also the fact that she takes pleasure in hurting her enemies. During that mission, she incapacitates enemies in rather brutal ways that leave them in agony rather than professionally dispatching them. This is an extension of her impulsiveness since she just can’t help but cause people pain when she can kinda get away with it.
She often antagonizes the other Freelancers due to them all having AIs before her, even North. It’s a bit of a childish grievance since Wash was perfectly fine waiting. And when Epsilon drives Wash insane, she blames him for having the AI program shut down for something completely out of his control. This arrogant behavior continues in the AI basics course since she thinks it’s BS that she’s there when she doesn’t even have an AI but Tex gets to skip.
It points to a sense of entitlement since she thinks that she should be higher up on the leader-board and that she should be getting an AI. Her later antagonism towards Wash and North are for two rather petty reasons. Wash for getting driven insane by Epsilon leading to the discontinuation of AI implantation and North for siding with Tex over her. Both rather selfish when it gets down to it because the former is something Wash couldn’t control and the latter is seen as North not thinking she’s as good as Tex.
While it seems that she does have a genuine connection to North, many of her actions possibly prove that it is either false or it didn’t matter to her in the long run of getting stronger and being better than everyone else. This is evidenced by the fact that she allowed him to die just so she could get Delta. And she dismisses all the AIs as just computer programs even though there is evidence that they genuinely have feelings (the Alpha being a prime example).
While she can feign mourning for her brother when Wash comes around, the fact that she’s responsible for his death in the first places makes this seem to ring hollow. (While there may have been genuine remorse, she still continued on her path not long after that.) There’s also the fact that she was willing to shoot Wash in the back just to save her own skin. She nearly did the same to Delta when the Meta had her cornered. And as Delta said, she would most likely backstab them again if given the chance. Leading him, of all individuals, to suggest killing her so that didn’t happen. Wash, being backstabbed by her before, doesn’t even hesitate and rightly so.

Road Trip: Westward Day 10: History, geography, horses, and a concentration camp
This summer, the kids and I embarked on a 10,000-mile cross-country road trip from Washington to Maine and back. Along the way, we got a brief taste of America through landmarks and sights that represent our nation, for better or worse.
Read notes from every day of the trip:
Eastward: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
Westward: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.
And various posts from the FAQ.

Mesa Verde National Park, Mesa Verde, Colorado
Mesa Verde is most famous for the cliff dwellings built by the Ancestral Pueblo people around 1200 A.D. 
Tumblr media
There are more than 600 cliff dwellings within the park, though we only had time to see a handful of them.
Tumblr media
If you schedule in advance, you can get a guided tour to some of the ruins. We didn't do it, but we saw people who did:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are also plenty of mesas and canyons. Note that the structures pictured immediately above are just beyond the bend from the canyon pictured below.
Tumblr media
In addition to the cliff dwellings, there are other, more traditional homes that are even older, some dating back to 600 A.D.
"These are much cooler than the sod house," said Luke, age 14, referring to the Prairie Homestead we saw earlier in South Dakota. "And much older."
"These took a little longer to build, I think," I responded.
--
Four Corners Monument, Teec Nos Pos, Arizona
At the geometric intersection of Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico, on a reservation managed by the Navajo Nation, the Four Corners Monument is the only place in America you can stand in four states at once. Or sit. Or crabwalk. Or dribble a basketball. .
Tumblr media
There was no basketball hoop at Four Corners, but Luke got his ball and dribbled it on the corner marker and in each state corner. For his creativity, he got applause from the line of people.
--
Wild Horses, maybe?
Tumblr media
In New Mexico just outside Four Corners, we saw horses grazing in the distance. I have no idea if they qualify as "wild" horses, but there were no obvious ranches nearby.
Later, on our drive through Utah, we encountered a herd crossing the road and stopped for some photos.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
--
Arches National Park, Moab, Utah
It was 102°F outside and none of us were interested in hiking through mostly barren rock and desert under a blazing hot sun. However, we decided that we'd still drive into Arches just to see what we could.
The massive rock formations — arches, balancing rocks, pillars and more — did not disappoint. They're amazing. It's hard to convey their sheer otherworldly scale in a photograph, but you can see the size of the people and plants in some of the images.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"It's like another planet," said Luke, age 14. "Like something out of a movie."
"It's places like this where Hollywood gets its ideas for other planets," I said.
We'd love to come back and hike around… during a cooler season.
--
Moab Isolation Center, Moab, Utah
Just up the road from Arches is the former site of the Moab / Dalton Wells Isolation Center: a concentration camp in which the U.S. government imprisoned Japanese Americans during World War II.
There is nothing left of it except two crumbling cement posts by the entrance, some cracked cement slab foundations, and a historical marker that has obviously been knocked over a few times.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The historical marker minces no words about the Japanese imprisoned here:
“All these men were U.S. citizens; some were veterans of World War I, others were family men, college graduates, and responsible U.S. citizens. Their incarceration here is a vivid example of how our Japenese-American citizens were treated during World War II. May this sad, low point in the history of our democracy never be forgotten, in the hope that it will never happen again.”
There was a larger internment camp in Delta, Utah, which is now the Topaz Museum and which presents much more information on Japanese internment. We didn’t make it over there. And there were dozens of internment camps around the U.S., imprisoning thousands of people.
We had previously talked about the Japanese camps when they were mentioned at the Holocaust Museum in DC.
“I studied these camps in 8th grade,” said Luke. “All of these people lost their homes and businesses.”
“Pretty much. There are a few stories where, for example, other farmers kept up the farms of Japanese Americans and gave them back after the war,” I said.
“That’s really nice of them,” said Nora. “Everyone else just took their stuff.”
“I should point out that kind of humanity was not the norm,” I said.
As the marker notes, the site was previously a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp during the Great Depression. As part of FDR’s “New Deal,” the CCC was a voluntary work-relief program that gave young, unmarried men a job, income, shelter, and food during that period of massive unemployment. Apparently, the cottonwood trees by the Dalton Road entrance were planted by CCC workers.
--
On our way to our hotel for the night, we drove through a town called Dinosaur. It has street names like Brontosaurus and Stegasaurus. I was concerned that our hotel might feature goofy dinosaur artwork, but fortunately the dino theme was limited to a few children’s toys at check-in.

Stoppable Family Vacation - Ch. 10
Chapter 10 - Day 1: Up In Smoke
His wife, meanwhile, exited the women's restroom with Alexa.
"I did a good job!" Alexa squeaked.
"Yes, you did, honey!" Kim smiled, patting her daughter on the head, "That gives you and your brother candy!"
She bought a couple pieces of candy for Justin and Alexa, two Nachos with cheese for Rufus and Ron, and a diet soda for herself at the register.
"Please and thank you!" Alexa said to the cashier.
Kim smiled at this and said, "I used to say that when I was your age, shortly before I met your dad in pre-K!"
Rufus crawled up on Kim's shoulder and chittered.
"What is it, Rufus?" Kim asked to the mole rat.
Rufus pointed out to Ron rushing up to the convenience store and he was panicking.
"Ron, what is it?" Kim questioned.
"My keys are inside the van and it's locked!" Ron screamed.
"This is so the third time in a month that this has happened!" Kim sighed, "Let me just get my..."
"No, KS! This is the job for the man of the house!" Ron exclaimed before asking the cashier, "Uh, do you , by any chance have a crowbar that I can use?"
"I'll see if my manager has one." the cashier replied.
"Ah, thank goodness!" Ron said with a sigh of relief, "I thought this trip would end up in disaster!"
The store manager brought him a crowbar and said, "Bring it back, okay?"
"No, problem, dude!" Ron grinned.
"Ron, you know that I..." Kim sighed, trying to intercede.
"Don't worry, KS. I got it all under control!" Ron replied with the crowbar in hand. He went back to the van to try to open it.
Kim groaned loudly and carried the nachos with cheese. She had the candy and sodas in a plastic bag.
Ron got to work and used the swan neck of the crowbar on the door. But unfortunately, he made four small dents on that door and he dented the door handle, This earned a facepalm from Kim.
"Wise guy, huh! Well, Mr. Locked Door, we'll just see about that!" he yelled as he used the crowbar try and break the glass window, but all he could do was a few cracks with his small frame. Justin, meanwhile, was enjoying all the destruction, clapping his hands. He had crushed small toy cars before with a brick.
Unfortunately for Ron, the keys fell off the seat and into the console.
"Oh no! Now how am I supposed to get to them now?" he complained.
Kim cleared her throat and took out her lipstick from her CCB handbag.
"KS! I though we can't use GJ gadgets in civilian life except in case of emergencies!" Ron exclaimed, for he had read most...key word most...of the GJ handbook
"Hello! Hyperactive 5-year old trapped in a van qualifies as an emergency, Ron!" Kim countered. "Section 48 Clause 14 Subsection Delta authorizes the use of gadgets in this department!"
"Let me show you how the real experts do it, Ron!" Kim replied while taking out her laser lipstick. She aimed and fired the laser at the door lock. The lock melted, forcing the door to open.
"And there you go. That's how you force-open the car!"
"Okay, that solves that problem!" Ron said, giving the crowbar back to the manager. "Ah, thanks for bringing my food, KS!"
"You're welcome, Ron!" Kim replied as she escorted Alexa back to the van.
Kim got back into the car as well. She dug her hand through the compartment and handed Ron the keys.
"Ah, there they are! Now let's roll!"
Ron started up the engine and the van went off the Dinoco back onto the interstate. They were about 70 miles from the Juanna farm on US 385.
(12:30pm)
Luckily, after the whole door incident in Sterling, the Stoppables encountered no other problems as they reached exit 180, the last exit before the Colorado-Nebraska state line. They headed south on US 385 en route to the Juanna farm.
After driving about five miles, Ron saw a mailbox that had the last name Juanna on it.
"This is the place!" he replied as he pulled into a long dirt driveway that must've stretched for two more miles on the Colorado prairie.
The Juana house was a one-story ranch-style house that was about 3,000 square feet, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It also contained a very small farm of a peculiar drug that was legal in Colorado and nine other states plus DC.
"Ron, I'm not sure about adding two more people on the trip." Kim said as the vehicle came to a complete stop.
"Why? The Stoppable-mobile can seat up to 8 comfortably!" Ron replied, pointing to the empty third-row bench.
"It's also not just that..." Kim said.
She then insisted to her husband "Keep Justin and Alexa in the car."
Kim then crept around the house.
"Aunt Ednel?" she called out. "Are you around? "
And then she caught sight of a young woman in her mid 20s wearing a bell-bottomed off-the-shoulder white shirt tied in the middle in the front so that a good amount of cleavage was shown and undone dark denim men's work overalls that were slightly too big for her. It was also clear to Kim that a) she was barefoot and dirty and b) she had no panties on. She had long blonde hair that went down her back and brown eyes. She had a mood crystal around her neck
This was Mary Juana, granola girl and vegan extrodinarie and the daughter of Ednel.
She was doing yoga on a mat, humming along to the sitar music being playing on a CD player.
"Mary?" Kim then asked.
"I detect the presence of an outsider..." Mary hummed, "...but since she is related to the blood of one of my cousins, I shall speak to her."
She was about to stand up.
"Mary, please! Can you at least hook up one strap of your overalls?" Kim insisted, "I do not want to see a bad sitch of your bare ass, especially the fact that I have two very young children around!"
"The last time I checked, Kim, you did not come from my mother's womb." Mary snarked. "But since you mentined the kids, I will hook them up."
"Thank God!" Kim exclaimed, "Now can you please tell me where Aunt Ednel is?"
