    Ukraine War

    Ukraine broke their agreement to cease hostilities in 2014. That is when all sides signed the Minsk Agreement.

    I'm not surprised that you are linking to BBC. Your one-sided comments on this rather complex situation give the impression that your main go-to information source is BBC. That is just as bad as Americans hanging on every word from CNN or MSNBC. You really should look at a wider spectrum of...

    Qingchengshan: Semi-Solitude in Chinese Nature

    My pleasure. Thanks for the encouragement. I still have a backlog of photos and memories that I am working on. I guess that is true of all older folks. At last the memories part.

    Qingchengshan: Semi-Solitude in Chinese Nature

    This is the last of my three articles on our trip to Sechuan, China. Qingchengshan: Semi-Solitude in Chinese Nature The highlight of our Sechuan trip was this foray into this Central China forest, the Qingchengshan Nature Area. The town itself struck me as touristy and inauthentic.
