  1. Magnitude 6.5 earthquake off Guadeloupe, as recorded near the Quebec-New Brunswick-Maine common border.

  2. Chartreuse tamaracks, but since it's Canada, not the Chartreuse massif, I can only call them sparkling larch.

  3. @EdwinG We saw the plume (venting of remaining propellant) high in the sky, North of West. We were near Rivière Bleue (where , , and all meet) and happened to be outside watching for Perseids. Bright like the photo, maybe 3/4 the size of the Moon's disk. Weird!

  4. First flowers of Spring in the Lower St. Lawrence! They bloom before the leaves emerge (mid-April)!

    Coltsfoot (Tussilago farfara), an aster, native of Europe, mildly invasive in North America. Used medicinally, but contains a liver toxin.

  5. A vertical motion geophone from near the Quebec-New Brunswick-Maine border. It records the Mag 7.6 earthquake that occurred between the Honduras and the Cayman Islands.

    Nearly an hour later, the ground is still rattling around from this large strike-slip earthquake.

  6. @parsingphase ...and near the Quebec-Maine border (Riviere Bleue). 500 km distance.Magnitude 3.8

  7. Today's trace from a seismometer in the Lower St. Lawrence area of Quebec. The upper two sets of signals are the snow plow going up and down the road. The long trace is the Mag. 7.0 earthquake off California. The later surface wave arrival is clearly visible. The bottom two small signals are mine blasts. Lot's of shakin'!

  8. 3.5 Magnitude earthquake near Miramichi New Brunswick tonight. Detected in the Lower St. Lawrence area of Quebec.

  9. Both of today's large Earthquakes in Cuba, as detected in the Temiscouata area of Quebec, near Edmunston, NB. The Mag. 5.9 fore shock arrived as a truck passed by (16:06 UTC) followed by the Mag. 6.8 main shock about an hour later. The geophone picked up these otherwise imperceptible shakings. The other long lasting signals are distant trains passing by.

  10. About eight months after the road was put in, a patch of Orange Peel fungus (Aleuria aurantia) pokes up.

  11. It's been a rainy summer...

    But the rain provides! A little over half a kilogram after a day of drying.

  12. Solstice to solstice, viewed from near where Quebec, New Brunswick, and Maine meet.

  13. De retour dans le bas-du-fleuve pour le temps des fêtes. On va se le dire, le télétravail ça a du bon.

    Ya tellement plus de neige qu'à Québec !
