A frog goes into a bank and approaches the clerk, seeing from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack. "Miss Whack, I'd like to get a £25,000 loan to take a holiday." Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager. Patty explains that she will need to secure the loan with some collateral. The frog says, "Sure. I have this," and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed. Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says, "There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there who claims to know you and wants to borrow £25,000, and he wants to use this as collateral."She holds up the tiny pink elephant. "I mean, what in the world is this?" The bank manager looks back at her and says... "It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone."

So four old ladies are driving down the highway when they get pulled over by a cop. "Ladies, Ladies, you can't drive 20 miles an hour on a freeway." The driver said, "But officer, we are going the speed limit. See that sign. It says 21." "Lady, the sign says Highway 21. That is not a speed limit."
The officer looked into the car. He saw the other three older ladies and they looked scared out of their wits. He asked the driver, "So what's the matter with your friends?" She sheepishly replied, "I guess that it is because we just got off Highway 202."

A priest wakes up one SSunday and decides to call in sick and goes to play golf. Up in heaven, St. Peter asks God, "Are you going to let him get away with this?" God says, "I guess not." The priest drives to a course six hours away so noone will recognize him, finds the course totally empty, drives the ball 495 feet and makes a hole in one. St. Peter says to God, "This is punishment?" To which God responds, "So, who is he going to tell?"
Along those same lines, the old man, with a gleam in his eye, asks his wife, "Honey, do you believe in the hereafter?" To which she responds, "Yes." "Then," he says, "you know what I'm hereafter!" "Well," says she, "if you're hereafter what I think you're hereafter, you're gonna be hereafter I'm gone!" (Why, how do we remember this stuff?)

Izzy decided to ride a bike with me. Doug, who just arrived yesterday, volunteered to drive the Gear truck. We may have a permanent Gear truck driver. Izzy and I rode 10 miles of gravel. There was a strong south wind and most of the traffic was coming toward us. The wind blew the dust off into the field. If there had been no wind it would have been a good idea to wear a facemask. We got there mid-morning, near Bradshaw, NE. Lunch was planned for noon but the Marchers were behind schedule. I marched back to meet them. When the Marchers arrived at the point 1 mile before the Solar Barn, the Nebraskans organized to stop the KXL pipeline <boldnebraska.org/actions <http://boldnebraska.org/actions>>, greeted them. They made a brief presentation and Ed responded for the March with a greeting and a brief presentation. Then we all marched the last mile to the Solar Barn. Lunch was out on the table so people helped themselves.
There were approximately 50 Nebraskan visitors. After lunch they
gave some presentations. The one that was most powerful to me was Dave Domina, dave@davedomina.com <mailto:dave@davedomina.com>. He's running for Senate from NE. He listed the reasons why TransCanada has failed, and is failing to build adequate pipelines. He identified the dangers to NE: aquifer; crops; drinking water; wildlife, etc. He also suggested that we rescind the subsidies that the petroleum/fossil fuel industry is getting and transfer them to the renewable energy industry. That's something he hopes to get done when he is elected to office. We need more legislators to do the same! Then a Native American gave a presentation. There was a spot on the grounds identified as the Peace Garden. After the presentations we greeted the presenters and paid our respects to the newly established Peace Garden.
We had put our musical instruments out hoping that we would have an
opportunity for the Climate Justice Gypsy Band to play. The schedule was full and we didn't have an opportunity to play. Dinner arrived in a school bus made into a café/kitchen. They had 4 dinner options, took orders through the window, and served the crowd. There was an evening program that was scheduled to go past sundown, but our campsite was a mile and ½ away. I rode to the campsite, took a shower, did laundry and got my sleeping gear set up.

Here's a picture of the Solar Barn.
