The other day I overheard a guy at the DQ in Diamond Valley talking bees. Yesterday, I met him at one of his bee cubes (google it and/or read the @Calgaryherald article from yesterday). I think I’ve found a new friend! @beespaced #beesofinstagram #bees #savethebees

I will never cease to be amazed at how these quartzite blocks travelled 300 km, on the back of a glacier, 30,000 years ago, from a mountain in Jasper to a field in Okotoks. #okotokserratic

It’s all mountain grandeur and reflections… until you hit a Rocky Mountain Sheep! (I’m still heart broken as I replace my side mirror assembly). (A trucker stopped and helped the stunned young sheep off the highway… it just stood there in the ditch quivering).

New side mirror installed. Off to wash the Mountain Sheep fur, blood, and hoof marks off of the car now. It’s all still so vivid in my mind.

This is exactly the kind of person who deserves a Nobel Peace Prize—first thing she does is shine the light on others! This gives me so much hope for our world. #NobelPeacePrize

"It’s hard to watch the news nowadays and not get wound up. Our politics are so deeply divided, and our rhetoric increasingly harsh. Every day, it seems, a politician or pundit says something that leaves me feeling incredulous." (From this article I wrote) thewisdomdaily.com/confessions-of…

Drove 2 hrs to find that the gate to the coulee where we normally search for dinosaur bones was closed for the season. This forced us into a new area where I found this! You can tell it’s a bone by its shape, surface, and cross-sectional porousity. Second best find ever!

This is why I love my literary agent Don Pape! He’s the kind of guy who would send a letter and gift like this… to celebrate Edward’s book contract. Herald Press
