New Hampshire State Mammal: White Tailed Deer

New Hampshire is yet another state that has the white-tailed deer as their state mammal.  Lacking any new information about the deer, I thought I’d go in another direction—a crafty one.  Did you know you can make things from the antlers?? Deer naturally shed these yearly so, if you’re lucky, you can find some discarded antlers in the woods.

If you find a lot of antlers, you can make this wreath.

Or, perhaps this chandelier.

Maybe this deer whistle is more to your liking.

You can find the instructions for these crafts and other craft ideas at brightstuffs.com.

      1. I wondered that myself. I’m sure there is a hidden trap door somewhere. And there has to be provision of oxygen into the water or the fish would die.

  2. “Why Does Trump Want Greenland and Canada?”

    Clandestine, Mar 13, 2025

    “Trump said today that he believes the US will acquire Greenland, and continues to offer Canada statehood.

    This happening during the negotiations with Russia is not random. Russia confirmed their talks with the US were not just about the war in Ukraine, but also the relationship between the US and Russia moving forward.

    Trump also said today that control of Greenland and Canada is necessary for “national and international security”.

    Trump seems to believe the Arctic region will be of extreme geopolitical interest in the coming years. The arctic could be valuable not just for defensive/military purposes, but in terms of managing maritime trade routes, and potentially even upping direct trade with Russia after normalizing relations.

    I’m not 100% sure what Trump is up to or what his overall all objective is with the Arctic, but it is all connected with the negotiations with Russia. This is also connected to Trump’s desire to take back control of the Panama Canal. Trump is positioning for control of maritime trade routes and shuffling the global economic order.

    Whatever Trump is up to, it’s big.”

  3. “Leading With Strength”

    American Flag with Sun

    “It’s bad enough that the previous White House opened our borders to millions of illegal aliens — now we know that many who crossed our border in a supposedly legal fashion also cheated their way into the U.S. in order to bring the country to its knees. Americans have had enough of America-haters — and so has the president we elected.

    This week, Donald Trump’s administration arrested pro-terror activist Mohamed Khalil and sent him to Louisiana, from where he is expected to be deported. The 30-year-old Columbia University graduate student was, according to left-wing media accounts, the “face” of Columbia’s pro-terror demonstrations. The Manhattan campus was the nerve center of the nationwide rallies on other campuses and throughout U.S. cities that celebrated Hamas’ October 7, 2023 terror attack waging a campaign of murder, rape, and kidnapping of Israelis as well as Americans. Because of activists like Khalil, from coast to coast, Jewish students were harassed, bullied, and beaten, property was destroyed, and classes were canceled to suit the vicious whims of a cohort of demonstrators, many of whom, like Khalil, were foreigners on student visas.

    On his student visa, Khalil married a U.S. citizen — another terror sympathizer — and was given a green card. As a permanent U.S. resident, Khalil led a student organization with ties to Palestinian terror groups that promised to “bring the war home” — to America, that is — to “weaken US imperialism” and bring about the “total eradication of Western civilization.”

    Khalil’s defenders claim he is being prosecuted for first-amendment-protected speech. But the Trump administration says it has nothing to do with free speech. Rather, he lied when he applied for his student visa.

    “When you come to the United States as a visitor, ”Secretary of State Marco Rubio said of Khalil this week, “we can deny you that visa. When you tell us when you apply, ‘Hi, I’m trying to get into the United States on a student visa. I am a big supporter of Hamas, a murderous, barbaric group that kidnaps children, that rapes teenage girls, that takes hostages, that allows them to die in captivity, that returns more bodies than live hostages,’ if you tell us that you are in favor of a group like this and if you tell us when you apply for your visa, ‘and by the way, I intend to come to your country as a student and rile up all kinds of anti-Jewish student, antisemitic activities, I intend to shut down your universities,’ if you told us all these things when you applied for your visa, we would deny your visa.”

    Rubio continued: “If you actually end up doing that once you’re in this country on such a visa, we will revoke it, and if you end up having a green card, not citizenship, but a green card as a result of that visa while you’re here doing those activities, we’re going to kick you out. It’s as simple as that. This is not about free speech. This is about people who do not have a right to be in the United States to begin with. No one has a right to a student visa. No one has a right to a green card by the way.”

    According to Trump, Khalil’s “is the first arrest of many to come.” As the President posted on Truth Social, “We will find, apprehend and deport these terrorist sympathizers from our country — never to return again.”

    It’s Trump’s actions, not just his words, that illustrate the core meaning of America First — defending our values and protecting Americans from those who mean our families, our communities, and our country harm.”

  4. I am adding a short daily prayer to the board. I would invite each of you, if you wish, to also add one or maybe two of your own liking. I do not want to stifle anyone but please limit yourself to one or two religious postings. here’s one I found that I liked.
