Thoughts for the day
Spring = windy and that’s what Flagstaff has today.
The Greer fire, south of Flagstaff, is now 15000 acres with little
containment.
It is sad that the Supreme Court must revisit Birthright citizenship.
I should have gotten my latest crown today. After fitting it and then x-raying
it he decided it didn’t set right. So, now to start with a new temporary and
then a new crown. I’ll get refitted at the end of the month.
In Flagstaff we always have spring new road work. Getting to the dentist
on the west side of Flag is a different route every time. Then today they are
working on the main road [highway 89] to get to I-40 to make it to the west
side. When I got off I-40 at Country Club I had to wait for 8 cycles of the
stop light to get to Highway 89. Then it was 1 lane in both directions. It took
me about 15 minutes to get to the dentist, the return trip was 40 minutes.
Gotta love construction.

actions today do not cause harm tomorrow.

& Culture
Urartu, an ancient kingdom in
Eastern Anatolia (modern Armenia and Turkey), was prominent from the 9th to 6th
centuries BCE.
Known for its fortresses,
Urartians constructed massive stone structures atop mountains, showcasing
advanced engineering. Their expertise in metallurgy is evident in the intricate
metal artifacts discovered at various sites.
Urartian culture included a
unique language and script, contributing to their distinct identity. Their
decline occurred due to pressure from neighboring empires like Assyria.
Despite this, their
architectural and metallurgical innovations left lasting impressions on
subsequent cultures, preserving their influence in history.
