This isn’t a competition. It’s a collaboration.
All in LONG PULLS
"If people want someone on council who is committed to seeing Kimberley develop in a thoughtful way where we take a holistic approach, creating a thriving small business community where entrepreneurs can be successful, and ensuring we’ve got a safe and vibrant community for generations to come, then you can feel good about voting for me."
"It would be my obligation to ensure we create a community that is social once again, not just online but in person. I want residents, both young and old, to have a safe place to live, to fail, and to explore without prejudice. Not only "A good place to be," but "A safe place to be.""
“I am late to Yoga, but it sure has been helpful. You don’t have to be good at it and you don’t have to do more than a few minutes to feel better.”
If, like me, you happen to live in the charming little mountain town of Kimberley, British Columbia, the hot local topic lately has been the proposed ‘Marysville McDonalds’ — SO — not only does this post gather some extra info/context in one place, but City Councillor Sue Cairns also drops by for an informative 5-question Q&A!
Because, like, WTF even is a music blahg, amirite? ESPECIALLY if they stop accepting music submissions.
Forever in the search of “I can haz blahg monetization”, I recently started rolling out an idea called ‘Mutually Beneficial Employment’ as a way for local businesses/organizations to do a combination of ‘support the work that goes into running The 95EH Events Calendar’ + ‘work directly with me on work we agree to’ — and this blog post explains more!
“Unpopular opinion, unless I’m on tour... half-caff at home has been great for my nervous system. We buy a bag of decaf and full to make our own because it can be hard to find sometimes.”
“Throw in the fact that the hope for the future world I'd like to live in feels easier to hold onto when surrounded by all those things I just mentioned & more (which comes with living amongst other people that are also drawn to those same things)… I think the highway 95/a area is still very much a pretty dang good place to be™!”
“This is like a reach-through-the-mirror-and-emerge-in-a-pool-of-clear-water-in-a-snow-covered-alternate-universe-style vibe. This is like if the elves in the Lord of The Rings made folk songs with bust-your-shit-open beats.”
"No Englishman could speak this Language adequately unless he were drunk and had no roof to his mouth"
Since we’re coming up to the June 27th/28th deadline for having public comments made a part of the public record in regards to the ‘Marysville McDonalds’ proposal, I figured I’d take a break from blogging about this local issue and put my thoughts down in a letter to council — and since I have a blog, I figured I’d share my letter on here too :)
