We just declared drought for the fourth year in a row. And this year, it’s statewide.
The sun is back, and while the threat of looming wildfire season remains, for now, I’m doing my best to enjoy the light, the warmth, the energy that comes after a long, dark winter.

I signed up to run 51 miles last spring. Here’s how it went

‘Kat is a force multiplier of strength. She just believes if you do good things, it will come back to you in return twice over. That kind of hope emanates like it’s visible, like it’s light.’
I needed to read a good thing about a good person today. This was it.
There’s a certain type of intimacy created when you get to know a place on foot. It’s slow, methodical, and inefficient by design. As all the best relationships are, if you ask me

Yes it’s all terrible and also I remember working there when they rolled out their take on poutine and I’ll tell ya what, it wasn’t poutine but it was deliciously awful in its own way

Even as it feels like the world is being tipped on its axis, spring is still as it has been: foreboding for some, not yet announced for others. Too much, or not enough. Green with new growth while the heavy brown mud remains.

I’m so, so sorry for your loss, Karen 🤍
Thanks, Sherrilyn. Note, there are about 8 million+ U.S. #Adoptees. Hundreds of thousands were severed from their countries of origins by intercountry adoption and do not have "original birth certificates." Most US born adoptees don't either. They ALL would be impacted disproportionately too.

If that isn’t an indication that Wall Street realizes the climate crisis is here — that water will quickly become a commodity — I don’t know what is.
A few years ago, some shadowy investor group bought the company that ran, maintained, and serviced our community well. As I’m sure will not come as a surprise, we’ve had more boil advisories, more downtown, and less reliable service since

If you’ve forded a river, you know slow going. You know the fight for
inches, the burn of trying to hold yourself upright against the current, the trust you have to place in feet you cannot see.
