A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.
Started July 1st 2019 for contests, etc. as other blogs are filling up and have other purposes.

2nd place for "Round 8"  Open in new Window.
The public sleigh wasn't running today and this old horse-of-a-sort struggled to reach Karegnondi City and the Spires of Freedom. We were trapped in traffic in a suburb of shards out on Georgian Bay.

Thoughts:

We carried a hundred kilos of fish we had harvested, enough to feed us and our neighbors through this Season of Starvation that our ancestors had once called March. We made haste in spite of the added weight. The storm was approaching from Hudson Bay. It was Wednesday and the ice glimmered in a shade of indigo.

February: Babiana wasn't just a Black Hand with a stiletto up her sleeve. Her father had butchered/chopped-up pigs and goats with a knife/blade like the one she grasped behind her back.
