A Day in the Life of the Water Cycle

Welcome water fans,

My name is Water Drop and I like to talk about the water cycle. If it’s wet, squishes and ducks swim on it, I generally like it, and have something to say about, so welcome to my campfires and hope you enjoy.

YourChannel: Wrong Shortcode

Try not to overthink a song. Go with what pops in your head, run with it, and don’t stop until you cross the finish line.

Folk Star Bobby Angel
Balladeer of the Nature Folk Movement (NFM)

More than just a singer/songwriter, Bobby Angel is the self-proclaimed leader of the Nature Folk movement (NFM). His mission? To restore nature and music back to their roots. And what not a better place to do it than around the campfire at night with a guitar. Bobby Angel writes and performs songs that strike at the heart of what it means to pursue a more harmonic state with that blue marble we all live on, Planet Earth. The truth about Bobby Angel: He never set out to be a songwriter, let alone a singer. It just happened. How? By day Bobby Angel is just another person in the crowd, struggling to make ends meet. But at night, around the campfire, the silhouette of the natural resource defender takes shape. Truth be told, Bobby Angel also sings a love song or two (or three). But mostly with Bobby Angel, his songs are about the trees and the earth and what we can do to make it a better place. Bobby Angel didn’t invent the folk song, but he did help rescue it from obscurity in the name of protecting the trees.

Remember the Rule of the Ninja: Never fear, never doubt, and never over think.

Candidate Burt Silver
It's a New Dawn with Burt Silver (because he stayed up all night to see it)

His ancestors trace back to the Mongolian Plain. And pass through the Nordic Sea. And after that, quite frankly, we lose track. His mother was a mermaid at Crystal Clear Spring, well, before the spring was polluted by nearby cattle. And his father was an 8th generation timberman, turned rancher turned land developer. While other candidates are making empty promises on TV, Burt Silver is making deals in late night smoky boiler rooms. And winning hard fought negotiations at the card table where, when the chips are down, he bets on himself, and doubles down. Where the real work gets done. It’s a new dawn with Burt Silver, because he stayed up all night to see it. Candidate Burt Silver wants your vote. “I’m Burt Silver and I approve of this message.” Paid for by Burt Silver’s gambling earnings.

Well howdy folks, and I’m completely freaked out. And you know why. The fringe middle. The silent majority. Why are they so quiet?

Cowboy at the Campfire
Where the campfire's always cracklin' and visitors are always welcome

Welcome to Campfire Park where the campfire’s always cracklin’ and visitors are always welcome. And most of all, where the Cowboy at the Campfire is waiting patiently, and always with a story to tell. Who exactly is the Cowboy at the Campfire? Let’s just say that he has a way about himself. He’s never too rushed, and inquisitive, but never nosey. And yes, he always has a story to tell.

I don’t know much, but I’m inclined to spill whatever I do out at the campfire

AM Radio Host Buck Buckner
Fear the middle, folks, fear the middle

Radio talk show host Buck Buckner tells listeners to “fear the middle” or rather — “The Fringe Middle” — as he calls the silent majority, in his popular syndicated radio program “In the Bunker.” The thing about Buck. He tells it like it is. Or at least as best as he can explain. And yes, like any radio host he tends to constantly repeat himself.

It’s a new dawn with Candidate Burt Silver, but only because he stayed up all night to see it

Charlie’s campfire
Inside Book 1: The Legend of Campfire Charlie

Campfire Charlie is more than just a legend …

He’s also featured in a book.

A summary of the trilogy

Summary: Join Rusty, a well-meaning but ― how shall we say ― “often distracted” park ranger, who is scheduled to give an evening campfire talk in a swamp preserve on a topic he doesn’t much like.  Not to worry (or maybe worry a lot) as the unwitting ranger meets a mysterious stranger who catapults him on a breathtaking journey to confront and maybe finally answer the deepest and most confounding question of his life.  That’s assuming he can ever get done (or to) his campfire talk …

So thanks for joining the campfire!

The campfire is always crackling and visitors are always welcome at Campfire Park
