She’s back!?! We believe this is the lone pronghorn that we have been tracking for 2 years. If so, she is STILL making her home in and around the Nose Creek Valley! #SaveNoseCreek #SNCpronghorn #yyc #RockyViewCounty #Airdrie #Balzac Pic: Joel Forre (iNaturalist) www.inaturalist.org/observations...

I ordered the wrong marriage certificate for someone I thought was my relative of the same name. I know it was the style at the time in 1919, but dang, a 27 year old widowed man marrying a 16 year old girl has me going O.o Now I feel obligated to research her life!

It's taking a little practice to use my new lightbox tent. Indoor product photography is new to me and getting everything just right is tricky. For example, objects in the front are soft and ones in the back are sharp. I'll get there!

There are SO many people that do invisible and important work that keep us safe, keep the environment safe and keep us connected to the information we need. I'm one of them and trust me when I say we're the Excel spreadsheet that holds up a lot of systems!

My current two budgies are not cuddlers. I feel kinda bad about it--it's so cold and you'd think that would bring them closer together. There is less squabbling these days, at least!
