  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.

  11. Art Pepper, Intensity, 1963 on Contemporary Records

    Recorded in 1960 but released in 1963, this has Pepper joined by Dolo Coker (piano), Jimmy Bond (bass), and Frank Butler (drums). A critical part of any west coast jazz library. That cover photo makes me think of the moment in Lost in Translation where the translator turns a series of long directions in Japanese from the director to Bill Murray as an actor into just this: "more intensity." Part of a series of recent pickups from Pepper on reissues, my copy—direct from Craft […]

  12. Hype for the Future 182M: Oregon’s Pacific Coast Explained

    Introduction Within the State of Oregon, the immediate area of the Pacific coast is of particular importance as an oceanic region notable for a Mediterranean climate pattern, characterized by relatively drier summers and significantly wetter winters throughout much of the area. Today, notable communities include the City of Astoria, located along the Columbia River Bar, in the north, along with strictly rural areas and even smaller communities. While the City of Astoria is of particular […]

  13. #FlashbackFriday
    2020.

    I was invited to go on a #flotilla #protest led by #IndigenousChiefs & leaders from the North Island in late 2019 - we went in March of 2020. To stop 2 open net fish farms, in the #DiscoveryIslands archipelago, from restocking their pens. These fish farms are remote & they don't want public to access them. No restocking was able to happen on day we went on flotilla protest & patrol.

    I've been a part of the battle here to get #FishFarmsOut for over a decade. There's finally some progress but we need to still keep up the pressure on federal & provincial governments.
    #SaveWildSalmon because they're a #KeystoneSpecies & if we lose them, it sets off chain reactions in both #ocean & #OldGrowthForest #ecosystems. Wild salmon are extremely important to the Indigenous peoples of BC & the fight to protect them goes back decades.

    Always put #WildFirst ✊️
