Thank you for this, Nan. I love the line, "you could start, i try to tell them, by lessening your harm." I feel the wisdom of water speaking here. As we move closer towards the winter solstice, and deeper into to season of water/winter, I'll carry these words with me.

Many of the devoted allies for Great Salt Lake here are originally from the Great Lakes. I love Great Lakes people! Thank you for helping us turn our hearts and faces towards this lake and all the life she sustains. Thank you for sharing your lake-facing culture.

speechless, in awe of your commitment. "Across hemispheres, rivers have been set free by ordinary, broken-hearted people willing to devote themselves to the water and the life that water sustains. Ordinary people who show up again and again bring down the dams." I'm willing to learn and support this.
