Day 71: I don't recall exactly when someone painted Pence out of this sign just off State Highway 7 in Elbe, but it was some time last summer. Apparently unsatisfied with an incomplete job, that person (presumably the same one) returned just last week and sprayed out the T using the same paint. It seems that a fair percentage of der Führer's supporters have as little regard for the law as he does; Washington state law states that all election signs must be removed within 10 days following the election, yet I could list at least half a dozen similar violations. For now, though, this seems to be Elbe's best tourist attraction, train rides notwithstanding.
365Caws is now in its 14th year of publication, and was originally intended to end after 365 days. It has sometimes been difficult for me to find new material, particularly during the winter months, but now as I enter my own twilight years, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to provide daily posts. It is my hope that along the way I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world. If so, I can rest, content in the knowledge that my work here has been done.
