Hi Patrick - I'll quickly weigh in to say that I have both enjoyed and learned a lot from your recent newsletters. The format, with both a long form essay and short updates, is great and it is clear you put a lot of work into each issue. I am a nature photographer and the Mojave Desert (Death Valley specifically) is a primary focus. Photography alone has started to feel superficial so I have been reading more and trying to get involved in some of the conservation efforts in the area. Your writing, along with following you on Twitter, has been a great resource. Thank you for your efforts and willingness to share your insights in this format.
Patrick - Sage and Sand is some of the best conservation writing out there right now. Devoto would be proud. And yes to the longform stuff, we can get news aggregators anywhere. As an aside, I'd love to learn more about why the three GOP commissioners pushed back on Ormat while the two Dems wilted (I can presume), but there may be a story there that is relevant for communities across the west, and not just Washoe County.
