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.

 So, the weekly is column is up. (It’s about the annual blessing of the fleet.) I already had a note from a friend in Arizona who said it sounds like I really could use a vacation– like yesterday. I didn’t think it was that bad. The good news is that today was like a vacation, we baptized Caroline at St. Michael’s and has a noisy Easter dinner afterwards full of children and dogs. I may tell you more later, but, now I’m off to bed with a good book, and a better husband.
