Alison Dyer. writer/permie living at the junction of the icy Labrador current and the balmy gulf stream - a blog about environmental issues, growing and eating organically, deliberate living, soundscapes of a changing world, kayaking the many bays of Newfoundland, the poetry of a coastline battered by storm waves and bathed in bioluminescence, the surge in Newfoundland literature, local issues like (non-appropriate) development in St. John's, Newfoundland's capital city.
