When evening comes (and it comes at… Read More Hazy shades of winter

Nasty Women Poets anthology

Last week, something exciting happened. My complementary copy of Nasty Women Poets: An Unapologetic Anthology of Subversive Verse from Lost Horse Press arrived in the mail. And people, it’s pink. Yes, a subversive and pink poetry collection by women. What makes the anthology so powerful is the blend of diverse voices, and talent, from poet laureates to… Read More Nasty Women Poets anthology

Black and white challenge

Everyone’s posting black and white photos on Facebook lately and so when someone challenged me (thanks, Gail!), I converted a few of this year’s pics into black and white. I was surprised at what I saw. Black and white feels so much more distinct and complex. Each layer matters, each angle. Moods emerge where color… Read More Black and white challenge

Hatcher Pass Marathon race report

Hatcher Pass Marathon race report

It’s been a while. Okay, it’s been like over half a year. Maybe longer. I’m afraid to check. I need to get my ass in gear, I really do. I have three race reports to post, one from way back in April (you remember April, right?). I’ll start in the middle with the Hatcher Pass […]

Sled dog races

Sled dog races

This past weekend we pulled on our boots and warm coats and ventured out to the Campbell Tract trails to watch the Fur Rondy World Championship Sled Dog Races. We walked back into the woods and stood at the side of the trail, no one else around. Everything so quiet; we could hear snow fall […]
