I live and write on Lingít Aaní, and gratefully acknowledge the past, present and future caretakers of this beautiful place, the Jilkaat Kwaan and Jilkoot Kwaan.

First, a little photo essay from the trip home from Morning Muscles at 7am. It’s light out, anyway. Summer can’t be that far off, can it? (After some coffee I’ll write something brilliant, pithy and newsy. I’ve been in a snow cave for a few days trying to write a Woman’s Day column and panicking about my MFA graduation requirement schoolwork that’s due April 1.)
