First Canadian campsite
Marty’s photo of the day #4464: This was one of the first campsites on Deb’s and my epic trip to the top of Canada for my first book, Cool Creatures, Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents. Ever since, Deb and I have hoped to redo that 5,572 mile-long adventure. We were going to do it […]
Returning to the Great White North
Marty’s photo of the day #4443: This is a close-up of tundra plant life in far north Canada. I shot this photo in 2002. It’s a beauty, eh? This fall, while you hosers will be all nice and warm, Deb and I will be donning our toques to take off for the Great White North […]
Dog on self-pilot
Marty’s photo of the day #4442: Deb and I took our dog, Nellie, on a hike up the Fred Burr Creek Trail this morning. About half the time Nellie had to be on a leash, and Deb and I took turns “driving her.” The rest of the time Nellie got to “self-pilot.” Whether she was […]
Not a bunch of nothing
Marty’s photo of the day #4233: When I perform my college show, Around the World in 90 Minutes, I talk about how important it is to keep the arctic natural.

Amazing tundra plant life
Marty’s photo of the day #4194: This is an extreme close-up of the amazing tundra plant life in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Or, as Republican oil company sycophants call it, “A bunch of nothing.”
Nearing the tree line
Marty’s photo of the day #3523: I took this photo north of the Arctic Circle in Alaska. As you can see, the tree line (where trees can no longer grow) is approaching. As I continued north, these scraggly trees would give way to tundra.

Earth Day photo for Republicans
Marty’s photo of the day #2870: Today is Earth Day, and if you’re a Republican, I know this is a miserable day for you. Why would anyone want to talk about saving the planet for future generations, when nothing is more important than the money you are making right now? Fuck your children and grandchildren, […]
