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.

 Well, it is July and the garden, at least the part that has been watered, has exploded. Everything else is so dry the beach peas are crunchy under foot. I posted a few of these photos on facebook yesterday, but I realize many of you don’t go there, so here’s some pics. This morning it feels like rain, and we could sure use it.
