About Me

My photo
For me it is All About Being of Service & Living the Life of the Give-Away....

Being Mindful of those who are unable to speak for themselves; our Non-Two Legged Relations and the Future Generations.

It's about walking on the Canka Luta Waste Behind the Cannunpa and the ceremonies.

It's about Mindfulness and Respect. It's about Honesty and owning up to my foibles.

It's about: Mi Takuye Oyacin

This prophecy is becoming a more and more brutal reality. But, even today, not every person is aware of the horrible effects our lifestyles have on nature. So share these evocative pictures with everyone. –

HURRICANE EVACUATION + PETS: Federal Law

ATTENTION: HURRICANE EVACUEES with PETS
For my friends in the path of Hurricane Irma (Jose, and any others)
If you are evacuating to a hotel/motel and they say they DON'T accept pets, don't get rude, but simply tell them that is against the law & FEMA established that after Hurricane Katrina.

The Pets Evacuation and Transportation Standards Act (PETS) was a bi-partisan initiative in the United States House of Representatives to require states seeking Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) assistance to accommodate pets and service animals in their plans for evacuating residents facing disasters. (There are only a handful of states where this provision is not in place. Please see map: https://www.animallaw.info/…/map-states-disaster-planning-l….)
PLEASE do not leave your animals when you evacuate. They depend on you for safety, shelter, food, and water. Without you, they can get irreversibly ill and possibly die.
Stay safe and be sure to share!
