The #LangfordWindPhone has moved to a new resting place. Come find it among the willows and cattails of Florence Lake.
Happy New Year to all. May the challenges, changes, and many unknowns of 2026 be met with strength and support.

One more week, and the #LangfordWindPhone will be moving to it's next location.
In January, the year starts anew - and so will I, as I continue the search for a site to install a permanent Wind Phone, along with potential hosts for this mobile version.

Take a walk across the bridge, through the red cedars and Douglas firs.
Pause for a moment to say goodbye, hello, or whatever needs saying. The Wind will know where to deliver your message.

One of the coolest parts of talking about the #LangfordWindPhone is having people tell me in return about other grief-supportive places they’ve come across.
These are places that quietly hold space for remembering.

Last week I took a rainy walk around Langford Lake with Ben Fenlon, a reporter from the Goldstream Gazette.
I shared with him my hopes for the future of my wind phone - as well as my concerns about the lack of grief-supportive spaces in Langford.
