The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this

Not sure how a period of your life can simultaneously be the worst AND the best but that’s how I feel every time I remember being 19-years-old.

Spent yesterday catching up with an ex (it’s been almost 30 years!) and delighted in that, fundamentally, we stayed the same. We’re calmer, cuter, & older, but the same. After days like this I’m overcome by an extreme desire to scoop up my memories and somehow serve them in a cone. Is that poetry?

Rescue puppies make the best companions… when they’re awake.

We’ll sit here for a while in our swishing snow pants.

Took this picture just before walking down to the river to watch the sunset.

Some leaves flap and flail to the ground, while others float gently until they kiss the earth.

A little over a decade ago, when my nephew Jack was a toddler, I spent two summers in-between contracts taking care of him and that’s when he started calling me Ya-ya.

And it just so happens that my legal middle name starts with a Y, which makes this nickname no different than yours, Bob.

Spent the day here with my buddy.

Walking along a river parkway on a hot summer day will ground you like nothing else.

I share my birthday with 3 friends I’ve known for decades, so it has become a communal celebration, and there’s nothing I want more than for all of you to know the abundant joy in that.

My neighbour is plying me with booze and pizza for a pre-birthday treat. I love having a summer, long-weekend birthday.

Maple syrup summer.
