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.

I thought this might be nice. I hope you enjoy a moment on the Chilkat River, there were glimpses of blue sky today in between spring squalls, and now it’s a soft gray evening and I’m watching, and listening, as May arrives in the backyard thanks to a little silver fish we call hooligan.
