Thank you to this beautiful, intense landscape of wild biodiversity, political divide, and violent undercurrent. Spent the last evening with impossible burgers and beers with photographer John Kurc, followed by listening to coyotes yip under a Milky Way of stars. Breaking camp and moving on. With gratitude for the time spent here and the unexpected conversations. My mind for now is empty, carried by the fierce desert wind. I hope when I return next, we are in reconciliation and restoration.
