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.

This morning as we cooled down from Morning Muscles, I said to Marnie, “He’s going sky diving with his girlfriend for her birthday, should I be worried?” Barbara overheard me, and said, “Is this Christian?” (My 21 year-old son.) “No,” I said, “My dad.” Papa Bob is visiting from N.Y and at dinner last night announced he’s going sky diving in July with a lady friend– for her 70th birthday. (He’s 76.) Later this morning he and I are going to jog the 3.9 mile Small Tracts loop. (His knee replacement is a success, apparently.) Guess I shouldn’t be worried.
 
Also, yesterday JJ took some photos and put them on my facebook fan page, she says I need better pictures than just the book jacket portraits. (I know there is a link to facebook on my Events and Tour page, and one which is click-able on the Home Page note, but you may have an easier  way to find it than I do. Let’s just say I’ll never Twitter, or Tweet, or whatever you call it. I can’t even text. You need a cell phone for that, right?)
