Frequently run around outside, with a camera, on my legs. I work and have worked in #communications. I post my own photos except reposts. Live in Treaty 6. #yeg #canada #art

Put that in your pipes and smoke it...
I used to smoke. I smoked and ran. (Not at the exact same time). It was a worrisome combo. I was addicted to two things at once. I couldn't quit smoking and I couldn't quit running. I did finally. Cold turkey. It's been 5 years.

Gone Not Gone...
I always #run once for those I've known who've died.

"Imagine, when a human dies, the soul misses the body...
... it moves through the universe trying to describe
how a body trembles..."

Lines from a #poem called 'Tincture' by Andrea Gibson.

Worth a read.

Don't Go Chasing Waterfalls...

A stain on the wall of a downtown dry cleaners that I often ran by. I sort of loved the irony of it...

Going Down...
(Like our healthcare system.) In the alternative universe we live in #Alberta this is probably considered a new invention called a 'dumbwaiter'. 'Dumb' is the operative word.

A hazy mix of morning mist and wildfire smoke hangs over a forest in the Kootenays, British Columbia, #Canada.

Respect & Hope...
two things that I quietly celebrated last night as the sun went down. Small important words, especially now. (Feel free to add to my list of important things to celebrate, if you like.) ✌️

I read an excellent short piece in @albertaviews.bsky.social today. There's nothing harder than good writing. This piece spoke and inspired me. I felt this.

On The Level...
The High Level Bridge in an early snowfall, back when it used to really snow. That bridge 'is' #Edmonton to me. I’ve always seen it as a metaphor for ambition, unity and progress.

The Garneau Theatre is a classic. Built in 1940, this local #theatre is celebrated for its Art Deco/Moderne style which is rare in #Edmonton. I've run by it with my camera for years.
It's longevity is inspirational.
