No man is an island entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as any manner of thy friends or of thine own were; any…

Bison Time
It's that bison time of year. Wood bison, that is. 🙂 They are closely related to the plains bison that were nearly exterminated in the 1800s, but the woodland bison took quite a hit as well. The woodland bison have made a strong comeback and in parts of southern Alberta the plains bison are doing…
My Neighbourhood
In my neighbourhood ... ... we have 48,000 people and 500,000 bears. It's best to let the bears rest where they want. 😉
How to Make a Narcissist Want You

Many people also come to Tofino in the fall to see the storm waves crashing on the shore. Tofino is on the Pacific Ocean, and the next stop is…
