On a Christmas visit to to the Yukon, we stopped at Five Finger Rapids to let the dog stretch his legs. It was a beautiful day, very mild for the north, at +2C. This Raven spotted us stopping and came by for a visit. No doubt he was hoping we'd stopped for lunch. This was as close as he'd let us get before he took wing.
I'm a musician and music teacher, living in a gorgeous old house in a small town in northern Alberta, Canada. I'm living a simple life, growing a garden filled with delicious vegetables, fruits, and soul nourishing flowers, bartering with nearby producers of organic meats, fruits and veggies. I host house concerts for Canada's Home Routes concert series featuring fantastic live music from all over the Americas.
