Alpenglow

​with the long twilight we get gorgeous alpenglow on the mountains. It inspired me to find a cocktail recipe to go with it. I did and it is delicious. 

2oz bourbon 

.5 oz lemon juice

.5 oz maple syrup 

Dash bitters - I used my home made balsamic tip bitters. 

Chill glass. Shake ingredients with ice until chilled. Strain into chilled glass over ice. Enjoy. 


Whitehorse Ravens

​during our long twilight we have the opportunity to watch the local ravens dance and play. They love the south wind - as it hits the clay cliffs it provides a river of air they play in. 


I took most of these without zoom - the ravens are so close you can almost touch them. At times they come in and tag out black dog, as if to say; ‘can you fly?’ 

Whitehorse Long Twilight

​the sun has been rising for the last half hour- the pink blush on the snow doesn’t really appear in the photo, but it is there. 


So Busy - Quilting

​it’s been a predictive few weeks here in Whitehorse. Between chopping wood working and other tasks daily life I’ve been finishing up some quilting projects. And starting new ones, of course.
