Don’t really post much about music, but really felt I should share some details regarding my latest vinyl acquisition: “Songs about women and dying”, by **Gutshot and Thirsty**. Favorite track so far - “No brother to hold me”, but my favorite track title is: “The grave out back is unburied”.

Finally made it to BlueSky. Just in time I think. Still figuring things out - anyone have cool drone stuff to send my way?

Wingtra drone in John’s Hopkins Inlet, just about to embark on a survey for seals and ice. Look at that BlueSky!
