  12. Two fab, local #Nanaimo small businesses operate out of this converted, former #TrainStation located on Selby St., beside the #ENRailTrail / former #TrainTracks. Black Rabbit Restaurant & White Rabbit Coffee Community.
    Cool mixed businesses - both offer local made foods/drinks & showcase local artists.

    Black Rabbit Restaurant is more than a restaurant. It's also home to The General Store, which sells/displays local art. It runs The #PostcardProject :

    They rent out their attic as private event space too.

  13. Got to walk across an empty Highway 19 on a green light in the opposite direction. 😂 🚦

    The entire highway is closed between the south Nanaimo interchange and Northfield Road. (about 10km).

    All due to a big accident apparently earlier this morning. Thankfully, I usually park across the highway at what is known as the cheap seats lol

    So I took the back road/detour. Ended up delayed about 30 minutes.

    Posting some of my older photos because I've been stuck at home for a bit & I have a ton of old photo memories.

    This is from 2021. I went up for frontlines arrestees court support in #Nanaimo. Pictured here with sister-friend Ojistoh, Grandma Losa, Chiykotin & sister-friend Raven(Wolf) in front of Nanaimo courthouse.

  15. Another year begins at Vancouver Island University.
    It boggles my brain a little that I am starting my 23rd year as a faculty member here at this campus. How time flies.

    Add to that the 2 years I spent here as a student and I've been here continuously for 25 years. A QUARTER CENTURY.

    I am always energized by the feeling of a new batch of students exploring and discovering what it is they want to pursue in their lives. (Including, now, my own daughter here!)

    There is of course plenty of office politics, bureaucracy, and other less than pleasant things that challenge any workplace, especially "publicly funded*” places like this, but the people, the students, the union, the faculty, the staff, yes even the administrators, are good people working toward good things and it is a pleasure and honour to be able to say I have worked here for so long.

    Wherever you are today, whether you're in the education field starting anew, or anything else, I hope you have a wonderful and productive week and year ahead.

    This is the view out of my office toward the rest of campus. And my favourite poster on my wall which I got from my boss/Dean who retired last year, hanging below my long service certificate.

    *publicly funded is a moniker that is more and more difficult to apply when rising student tuitions, both domestic and international, continue to fund more and more of the basic services these learning institutions provide. Education is a right and should be free and fully, publicly funded.
