  1. When the days are short, the light is low, palm trees sway in the wind, cool sea breezes blow all the way from Alaska, and, somehow, it feels like the leaves rustle in the distance, even at this southernmost reach of the seemingly "Infinite Coast".

    Taken one November outside San Diego, by yours truly.

  9. ICE bans hugging inside California’s largest detention center. Families are fighting back
    By Sam Levin in Los Angeles

    In the California City facility, ‘contact visits’ are strictly forbidden – but detained residents aren’t staying quiet. Are officials listening?

  11. Hype for the Future 135G: State of California Explained At-Large

    Introduction The State of California is located along the West Coast of the United States of America and is the most populous state in the nation though containing a smaller land area than the States of Alaska and Texas. By population density, the state is toward the higher end, albeit not nearly as densely populated overall as the State of New Jersey or even the Southern New England states.

  12. #Namgis #FirstNation #BigHouse - #AlertBay #CormorantIsland. From my 2023 visit.

    The Namgis #FirstPeoples use their big house for cultural #community events. #T̓sasała #Cultural Group uses the big house for sharing cultural teachings, songs & dances.

    "You will see the next generation of #Kwakwa̱k̕a̱wakw sharing our culture to educate the world about our ancient songs, dances, teachings and values. These teachings are still being passed on today to the children of T'sasała.

    You will witness the dances of the T̕seka, our red cedar bark ceremony. You will see the traditional dances that connect us to the land, sky, and sea. The #T̕seka will be followed by the T̕ła'sala ceremony - peace dances, then finally the #A̱mlala or fun dances where you will get a chance to join in."

    #Beach gooseneck #barnacles find.
    There's 3 different types of barnacles found in BC waters/on beaches - acorn, gooseneck & whale - the latter grows on whales' bodies. Barnacles are a longtime, year-round staple #seafood for coastal #Indigenous #FirstNations. In particular, the #Haida & #Kwakwakawakw & #Pacheedaht #FirstPeoples have several documented stories involving barnacles, including food prep recorded histories.

    Barnacles are #ancient and can be dated to the middle of Cambrian period of Paleozoic because of Burgess Shale deposits in #BritishColumbia. They're #hermaphroditic #MarineAnimals.

  14. Note: #bchwy4 has just closed due to high winds. Next update on DriveBC (viewable at alberniweather.ca) is at 4:30PM but I would not expect the winds to abate before tonight. #CameronLakeFire #Wind #PortAlberni #WestCoast #Tofino

  15. Highway 4 eastbound currently backed up nearly to Whiskey Creek store (5km?) from Cameron Lake Park. Moved as far as Little Qualicum Falls. Currently at 20 minutes since #bchwy4 junction stoplight. Wouldn't be surprised if I am still 2 movements away from going through the #CameronLakeFire zone. #CanadaDay #PortAlberni #BCPoli #BCWildfire #WestCoast #Tofino #LongBeach

  16. Will be making the trek over the detour tomorrow to pick up an important package. 6AM start! 300km in the EV. Probably a 6hr trip. It’s gonna be fun! Hopefully. 🚗 😆 #detour #bchwy4 #BCWildfire #CameronLakeFire #CameronBluffs #WestCoast #BCPoli
