I found these beautiful red bushes glowing in their fall mantle. I don't know what kind of bushes they are, but like most things in life, they're just passing through, gifting us with their colour before they're gone. Happy Fall.

Too Gorgeous
We recently visited Twin Falls Gorge Territorial Park not far from Hay River, NWT. The river was very low from the dry summer but the falls were still very impressive. It was an invigorating visit - quite cool at only 6°C. Winter is approaching quickly and yes, it will be cold. Be we will also…
Northern Autumn
Here in the north ... ... the rivers are low. It has been hot and dry. But it's cooler now and the autumn colours emerge quickly and early. The birches are lovely ... ... and the air invigorating and fresh. But soon, all this will be covered in snow. We have to enjoy the wonders…
Shadows
Sometimes we have shadows. They help us stay cool or they lead to the light. Sometimes we have shadows. They sit in our hearts or they lead to the night.
Prairie Skies
We recently drove across Alberta's northern prairies during a rain storm. We passed beautiful canola fields. And then we left the storm behind as we continued our drive through the Rocky Mountains.

One of Trump's advisers even went so far as to proclaim that there is a "special place in hell" for Trudeau. Now, no matter what your political stripe, that kind of unregulated and moronic loudmouthery is something that…
Where’s Home?
When you think of home, what do you think about? Is it a town? A city? A building? Is it being in the same place with your significant other? Or is it a state of mind? The melting ice of Great Slave Lake, Northwest Territories. Do you have to leave it…
Meet the Bruin Triplets
We recently encountered the Bruin triplets. As a precaution, we photographed them through our windshield - the photo quality suffered because the window was dirty and there's also a lot of visible glare. The bears are coming into a lot of contact with humans however, and we think it's best not to open windows or…
Mother’s Day Bears
On the weekend, M and I drove through Wood Buffalo National Park on our way to Fort Smith. We saw quite a few bison (frequently mislabelled as buffalo; the park has also retained the old inaccurate name) but lots of bears as well. They have been out and around for about two to three weeks…
