“A more hopeful possibility is that the bureau adopts short-term rules that would give the states another chance to negotiate a longer-term deal – ideally with an unbiased third-party facilitator for support.” #ColoradoRiver theconversation.com/why-colorado-r…

Article III(e) on aquifer hoarding “the States of the Lower Division shall not require the delivery of water, which cannot reasonably be applied to domestic and agricultural uses.”

Colorado DEIS letter on Lower Basin aquifer hoarding of #ColoradoRiver water. Fed’s gave them authority to do this. It’s not right under Article III(e). They took nearly 2 years of Lower Basin supply out of reservoirs, it’s why we are in crisis today varuna.io/Colorado/pdf/N…

“.. the dam would even be shifted to a run-of-the-river operation, …. That would almost certainly result in water shortages downstream, at the very least for the @CAPArizona” aspendailynews.com/opinion/writer…

“Per .. , Jack Schmidt Lake Powell currently holds 1.57 million acre feet of water above the protect-the-infrastructure no-go line of elevation 3,500.” It’s 1.1 MAF at the safer 3510’ in LaFond inkstain.net/2026/03/the-co…

Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

@zagbagtx No it’s the Dolores just above Stoner Creek confluence.

@edmillard Is that up the west Dolores/Dunton rd?

Ranch where I was born in 1961 in the Dolores River valley. River corridor is the beautiful part along the base of the canyon wall. Grandfather Ben built the barn 1920 for their dairy to feed Rico miners. Mass transit 1930-1950, cheaper than train. Skiing next door at Stoner

@AlanBoyce47 It was the depression, cheap mattered. Thus is a Rio Grande Southern locomotive that ram the route before the Galloping Goose

@edmillard Ford sold a lot of Pintos,

The United States must retain the ability to feed itself. In a tumultuous world, if we lose that ability, and the rest of the world chooses not to, we starve. #ColoradoRiver varuna.io/LOTR/Foundatio…

“I’ve been asking myself: Does America really need to be in the agriculture industry?” Burruel said. “America is not totally enamored with agriculture when it comes to pesticides, herbicides, groundwater, GMOs — all of the above. We are at a crossroads” #ColoradoRiver

Suddenly I turned around and she was standin’ there With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns “Come in,” she said, “I’ll give you shelter from the storm” youtube.com/watch?v=IzaXlq…

I was ’round when Jesus Christ Had his moment of doubt and pain Made damn sure that Pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate Chorus (recurring): Pleased to meet you Hope you guess my name But what’s puzzlin’ you Is the nature of my game youtube.com/watch?v=ldCbVP…

Come down off your throne and leave your body alone Somebody must change You are the reason I’ve been waiting so long Somebody holds the key But I’m near the end and I just ain’t got the time And I’m wasted and I can’t find my way home youtube.com/watch?v=6jlLBs…

“I see your hair is burnin’
Hills are filled with fire
If they say I never loved you
You know they are a liar
Drivin’ down your freeways
Midnight alleys roam
Cops in cars, the topless bars
Never saw a woman so alone
So alone, so alone, so alone” youtube.com/watch?v=TMiAQP…
