Hi.

Thank you for visiting A World Betwixt Worlds. New content is added weekly.

New segment: The So. Cal Wildflower Update 2.29.24

Each time I hike, I always document the wildflowers that I see. I want to share my journeys of my local mountains, fields, forests, and desert wildflowers with everyone in a regular segment. After my hikes, I will compile a photo gallery of my wildflower pictures so that everyone can see the current blooms in Southern California. Every hike, there are new plants that are blossoming and there are many times that these are plants I have never even seen, which makes these discoveries all the more fun to share.


Nature’s magnificence is something to behold and to protect. Please go out into your neighborhood or local trails and discover the splendor in your backyard and share what you see and learn. Sharing the diverse plants, terrains, and wildlife in your area is something we can all learn from.

Let’s put our all into protecting these amazing habitats and honor nature.

We must do everything we can to save our precious planet.

Israel lures starving Palestinians and then massacres them, US troops fighting in Gaza, and Biden wants to team up with Trump. The rabbit hole we are falling in is bottomless

Trump: one court win, and one court loss. How is Trump a candidate? Shouldn't the US be worried he might incite another insurrection if he loses again?
