Police checkpoint brings awareness to victims of impaired driving this holiday season
A police traffic stop near Bay Bulls on Monday served as a reminder to separate drinking from driving. Each year the Red Ribbon Campaign raises awareness for the victims of impaired driving and their families.

You know what? The elections went really well and I'm in a good mood today, so here's one of my favorite waterfall photos from Newfoundland. All the whale watching ships leaving Bay Bulls and heading to Witless Bay duck into the cove and put their bows by the waterfall so people can get photos. That's fun, but I prefer this angle.

My Bald Eagle friend here has something to say to my fellow Americans: GO VOTE!

Normally I try to keep my politics content confined to my other accounts, but tomorrow (11/7) is Election Day across much of the US. While it may be considered an "off" year in many places, there are likely hugely important things on your ballot.
- Here in Virginia the entire legislature is up for grabs, which will determine whether the right-wing governor gets to ban abortion, trash our educational system, and hurt trans people.
- In Ohio, there's a constitutional amendment on the ballot that will protect the fundamental right to abortion.
- In Pennsylvania, there's a state supreme court race which will be important for voting rights (as in: do you have any?).
- In NJ, the entire legislature is also up for grabs
- In many places, school boards and mayors, etc. are up for election. The school board races are a particular target of the far right at the moment, so defending them is paramount.

If you're not sure what's on your ballot or you're unsure if you're registered, you can check https://whenweallvote.org/ or https://www.vote.org/
