Harvesting an Identity

November 7, 2013 by Dale 6 Comments

Long has the harvest been an important part of my life and long has it been associated with fall, bountiful cornucopias of food, and Thanksgiving. Growing up in the Okanagan Valley, the fall harvest meant picking the last of the fruit and stripping our garden of its remaining plenty before tilling the vegetation back into…

Sky Feathers

November 1, 2013 by Dale 2 Comments

It’s amazing what the layering of nature and human tracks can produce in the sky — vapour trails become feathers.

Homemade Super Dog Food … aka Ben’s Breakfast

September 15, 2013 by Dale 27 Comments

If I have a finger for every love in my life, one is given to food and another one, likely an opposable thumb, is given to Ben, my dog. Together, those two loves have produced this recipe for homemade dog food which I have been feeding to my super/wonder-dog for years. For those new to…

Circle of Fire … Watchers

September 1, 2013 by Dale 2 Comments

Fire ◊ Light ◊ Friendship The glow and heat of its embers; the crack of  the timber; the rise of the smoke and sparks. Our primordial DNA ignites and we drift through epochs and are united in the primacy of our existence … and our past. In the that moment, that flicker of fire, our friendships…

The Magic is the Light

August 27, 2013 by Dale 8 Comments

For years, I thought the mystery was the molten glass, but the magic is the light. I’m reluctant to put quotes around these words because I think I’ve done a poor job of remembering them word for word, but this is the essence of one quote I read on the wall of the Musée des beaux-arts…

Tangerine Sky

What’s better than a sky that looks like food? Tangerine ice cream, anyone?

Fireworks over Niagara Falls

July 19, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

Fire … in the night. It defines our species. Regardless of what advances we make in genetics or semi-conductor research or even particle physics, there is no better guarantee of drawing thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people outdoors, at night, than the promise of fireworks. (Sorry Higgs Boson — you’re not a spectator…
