I am rarely updating my blog at present.

Instead I have created a weekly newsletter about human and natural history around the Pacific Northwest. Each one addresses a recent adventure, story in the news, or a tidbit of history, such as a hike up the Oyster Dome, which prompted observations about time travel to the last ice age; finding a house from the Denny Regrade now located on Lopez Island; or my obsession with maps around Seattle.

Sign up is easy. Just follow this link. I look forward to sharing these stories with you.
