Thoughts for the day
Another windy day, just spring at 7000’.
There was much damage in KY and Missouri…another sign of spring.
It was 45 years ago that Mount St. Helen erupted. One of our teachers at
Tuba was from that area. Her family sent her a box of the ash. Mary then had
any interested teachers stop by and get some to show to their classes. An
interesting educational experience. I still have a vile that she gave me.
A Mexican Navy ship clipped the Brooklyn Bridge. The result was 2 dead
crew members and destroyed 3 of the ship’s masts. An investigation will better
inform us as to why this occurred.

Unknown Civilizations that once ruled the world…
Nabatean Kingdom © Britannica
The Nabatean Kingdom, famous
for its capital Petra, thrived in the Arabian desert from the 4th century BCE
to 106 CE. Masters of trade, they controlled vital caravan routes, connecting
the East with the Mediterranean.
Their architectural marvels,
carved into rose-red cliffs, reflect their engineering prowess. Nabateans
excelled in water management, creating sophisticated systems to sustain life in
arid regions. Their legacy lives on through Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage
site.
The kingdom's decline began
with Roman annexation, but their innovations in trade and architecture continue
to inspire modern scholars.
