This Tuesday I had the privilege of meeting James Payne, Executive Director of the Fort Walla Walla Museum. We toured the newer Entrance Hall located at Fort Walla Walla and pictured above. In addition to the entrance hall, the Fort Walla Walla Museum complex includes a pioneer village maintained by living historians from April to October, a horse agriculture exhibit, a military cemetery, multiple exhibit halls, and a research center. My comments today will focus mostly on the entrance hall and secondly the museum complex as a whole.
The museum contains an outstanding collection of artifacts that are historically relevant to the Pacific Northwest and to the nation, and span timeframes from pre-settlement to the First World War. The exhibits themselves are readily accessible to the public while simultaneously illuminating the bigger historical picture in an understandable, uncluttered, and straightforward manner. Professionals and volunteers on staff maintain the museum, archives, records, and research facility on fifteen acres. Of note, the museum recovers onsite artifacts with its own staff archaeologists, preserves cultural artifacts, and conserves historical documents.
In addition to the museum featuring original military uniforms, gear, and firearms used at the fort, the grounds display artillery from the First World War and Fort Walla Walla army unit the 2/146th Artillery Battalion (see the picture above). United States Civil War exhibit points out local family connections and includes a unique photograph of President Lincoln. Buffalo and Indian soldiers who served at Fort Walla Walla also appear in similar displays. However, this museum emphasizes a complete picture of lives in the Pacific Northwest and the military is just one aspect of that image.
The transportation exhibits show the nature of early travel in the Pacific Northwest, while the agricultural exhibits display how improvements in technology increased production. The exhibits continue to excel at highlighting multiple dimensions of history while not sacrificing detail. The plateau Indian bead work collection donated by the Lloyd family best exemplifies this. The Lloyd family exhibit retells how a settler family was able to initiate, maintain, and grow a peaceful co-existence with plateau Indians of the inland Pacific Northwest—unlike many of their neighbors. Other exhibits illustrate different periods in history, including a diorama of Lewis and Clark meeting Yellpt of the Walla Walla people, a display of early fur-trading equipment, and a textile exhibit displaying formal dresses from mid-Victorian times to the 1950s.

An abundance of joy - it is your birthright - but sometimes it needs to be cultivated with gratitude practices. I've set up 'gratitude triggers' so that when they appear, I pause momentarily, and take a quick inventory of all the things I am grateful for. I have quite a few gratitude triggers, for example, when I see 11.11 on my phone I pause and evoke gratitude (yep, cheesy but it works for me). The trick is to pick a trigger and firmly anchor it by immersing yourself into deep gratitude while holding that trigger in mind. Try it and let me know how you get on. Jayney xx

Benefitting from many years of R&D development, the Float X2 Performance Rear Shock has been refined to hit the performance sweet spot.
The ideal choice for the ultimate enduro or downhill bike, this rear shock has a more linear damping profile than previous models and offers super smooth performance. The reason for this is that Fox has included improved seals and improved the oil flow. The Float X2 Performance also offers a wide range of adjustments to help you dial your ride to perfectly suit the trail conditions and your riding style.
RVS (Rod Valve System): The Rod Valve System (RVS) provides a more seamless damping transition when absorbing small to large impacts, resulting in faster system response, more control, and less harshness.
Patented Air Transfer Port System: Fox Suspension's EVOL linear spring curve gives forks and shocks plushness off the top, extra mid-stroke support and more tunable bottom-out progression. This allows riders to tap into the ideal pairing of front and rear-end feel.
EVOL Air Sleeve: The lightweight one-piece EVOL air sleeve was designed for each shock size (imperial, trunnion and metric) to balance internal forces, and has maximized bushing overlap to reduce friction during “real world” forces like side-loading and twisting.


Just want you to know that I let the Cat Sitter touch me this morning.
Just the fact that she'd use the word *relationship* indicates to me that she needs to do a better job of managing her expectations.
I better sharpen my claws get ready for our next encounter.
It's been 14 days since Glogirly left me.
2 whole weeks already? Will she ever return? I'd probably be ok with the deal if the cat sitter has access to good aged cheddar.
pee ess...if she does, let me know so I can teleport over.
Hey isn't that a SOS sign on the steps! Do you need me to come over and run that sitter off? Hang in there Katie! and Waffles too.
We can't believe Glogirly has been gone for two weeks. Just hang on, Katie. It feels like it'll go on forever, but it won't.
Poor, sweet, Katie girl! You must have forgotten what Glogirly looks like by now. When you close your eyes, does the catsitter's head float into view? If so, it's too late. You really do LIKE her!
Maybe she has run off Katie. Maybe she is living with ANOTHER PET!!!!
Hmmmm, who is that strange woman in the goat pen?
I let my pet sitter touch me... but she DOES understand that it is a great gift that I give her.
You could use those handcoughs to attach the cat sitter on that railing Katie! We're running out of ideas to help you! You poor little thing!
She touched you?? Did she not remember the rules that you will have laid down the minute she walked into YOUR house??
LOL Katie your claws look pretty sharp from over here. You stand your ground. Have a terrific Thursday.
Oh Katie ... 2 weeks?!? Are they really going to return?!? It may be wise to grace your sitter with the privilege of touching you, especially with Orange Stuff constantly sucking up!!! Stay strong Katie!
We see the SOS sign on the steps, Katie! Isn't anyone listening? Hurry home, Glogirly.
ew...i hope you took a good long baff after that, Miss K. what is with all those grabby-hands? they really can't control themselves, can they? well, we can all see how much this trauma is wearing you down, Dear Katie, so I hope you keep good notes of all your miseries and mental distresses, so you can adequately present Negligent Owner wif teh bill.
x p.s. sorry for the deleted comment above!
It's been 14 DAYS??!!! OMC OMC!! What was Glogirly thinking when she left so long??????!!!!
oh Katie, what ever were you thinking??
We hope Glogirly and Gloman aren't going "Around the World in 80 Days"!!!
We're getting worried about you Miss Katie, we fear you may be dropping from disdain to tolerance!
We are convinced Glogirly is never coming back. And as for that little Waffles, well, you can send him along to us and the Four Housecats of the Apocalypse will show him a little humility.
Katie darling...come over here and bring Waffles (yes, I said that).
I warn you, Katie, she's NOT COMING BACK! She's moved in with Spitty and Savannah and their humans. Oh the pain! Woe is the cat! But you're starting to get over her already.
Poor Katie, I sure hope she gets home soon!
Gee....are we sure Glogirly isn't stuck in a P-T-U somewhere????
Allie: Oh girlfriend! You should do what *I* did...smile really wide and swish your tail like mad. They think you're going to murder them in their sleep. It worked for me - she was terrified by the time Mother returned!
Oh Katie , I do hope your Glogirly comes home real soon !

Glashion is a Google Glass project that allows you to buy fashion products that you are looking at. Look at any fashionable bag or dress on a bypasser or in a store, and then the app queries the ShopStyle API for similar matches based on object recognition technology. You simply tell Glass when you see a product, "Ok glass, I want this!" and you can then buy the product with a blink. At least that is their idea.

Literary festival and open mic to be held at the Gale Free Library
Rebecca Humphrey Editor @thelandmarknews
Susan Roney-O’Brien used to be “that kid who looked out the window during class and dreamed,” she said.
From winning her first poetry contest in third grade to getting her Masters in education from Anna Maria College, and a Masters of Fine Art from Warren Wilson College, she followed those dreams to become the accomplished poet and teacher she is today.
The Princeton resident runs a poetry venue at The Thirsty Lab, she is the coordinator for the Stanley Kunitz Boyhood Home Summer Writing Series, the organizer for the annual women's reading at the Princeton Library, a board member of Worcester County Poetry Association, and a member of the Monadnock Pastoral Poets. Her latest full collection, “Bone Circle,” was published by Aldrich Press in California in December 2018. WordPress published “Legacy of the Last World” in 2016. Two chapbooks, “Earth” and “Farmwife,” were also published. Another full collection, “Thira,” will be coming out in March 2020.
Now, she is looking to share her skills and passion in Holden. Roney-O’Brien and a group of dedicated volunteers are hosting a kids literary festival and open mic at the Gale Free Library in Holden on Saturday, March 30. The festival is open to all in grades K-12 and will include mini-workshops with local teachers, writers, musicians, and artists that can help students create a new work or to polish an already completed draft. Then, those who would like to can share their words and art at the open mic.
The former English Language Arts and social studies teacher at Thomas Prince School said she has always considered young voices as the future. “Giving them a place to imagine, create and speak opens the door for us all,” Roney-O’Brien said.
Stations will be divided by poetry, art, and music. Times are as follows: grades K-5, 9:30-11:15 a.m.; grades 6-8, 11:15 a.m.-1 p.m.; grades 9-12, 1-2:45 p.m.; open mic 3-3:30 p.m.
The poetry station activities will include a rhymed couplet scavenger hunt, an "opening" lesson on writing, and a chat about poetry based on the natural world. Other activities deal with specific skill and verse form topics such as similes, onomatopoeia, alliteration, couplets, limericks, haiku, acrostics, and "Write Aid"-- a place for students to work on revision.
The art station will use letters or words to design and create a composition. Another lesson includes a mindfulness-based activity that involves finding a guiding word and creating art around it.
The music station will feature a singer/songwriter who will work with students to explore and create lyrics and songs.
“I hope students have fun and are empowered by what they accomplish,” said Roney-O’Brien. “Creative thinking can change the world.”
For those who might be nervous about sharing their works at the open mic portion of the show, Roney-O’Brien offered some advice.
“Most people are nervous when performing," Roney-O’Brien said. "Speak loudly and slowly; enunciate each word. Don't worry, everybody wants to hear what you have to say and understands that it takes a great deal of courage to stand in front of an audience. You will do beautifully.”


Community Health Workers (CHWs) work in association with the local health care system (hospitals, doctors, clinics) in both urban and rural environments to bridge the gap between providers and underserved populations in need of care. They are members of the community who share ethnicity, language, socioeconomic status and life experiences with those they serve.
CHWs provide culturally appropriate health education and information in order to assist people in receiving the care they need. They can give informal counseling and guidance on health behaviors; advocate for individual and community health needs; and provide some direct health services, like first aid and blood pressure screening.
The Promotor(a) or Community Health Worker Training and Certification Program provides leadership to enhance the development and implementation of statewide training and certification standards and administrative rules for the Promotor(a) or Community Health Worker (CHW) Training and Certification Program. Senate Bill 1051 (77th Texas Legislative Sessions) calls for the Texas Department of State Health Services to establish and operate a training and certification program for persons who act as promotores or community health workers, instructors and sponsoring institutions/training programs.
Community Health Workers (CHWs) in the state of Texas must be certified. Certification is comprised of completion of 160 hours of coursework in eight core competencies.

3 CHW Instructor CE's, DSHS approved, Self-Study, With advanced communication technology, migration, and travel, many have noticed greater interconnectedness between the nations of the world. Thus, this online course will focus on community health work in this ever-changing, increasingly global society. The CHW Instructor will read lecture materials that provide an overview of globalization and its relationship to community health work. Several case studies will be provided to encourage critical thinking about the influence of global shifts on day-to-day community health work. In addition, self-guided exercises will be provided to help the student explore ethical considerations for CHWs in relationship to global trends.
