On the tundra
Marty’s photo of the day #4218: Here’s a close-up of the tundra in the Yukon Territory of Canada. Not all of it looks like this, of course. Just a few feet away was a collection of tiny green and yellow plants, and just a few feet from there was another collection of different tiny plants, […]

Faro in the fog
Marty’s photo of the day #4215: Somehow, through the years, the file containing all the Sony Mavica photos from Deb’s and my 2002 adventure to the top of Canada disappeared from my computers.

Yukon Territory in the fall

Dreaming of Canada
Marty’s photo of the day #3440: Deb and I keep talking about repeating our trip to the top of Canada. We couldn’t do it during the last several years, because our dogs were too old to come along. Now that we have our young Lab-mix, Nellie, the temptation to go again is even greater. She […]
