http://www.rsmackie.com/about.html
I have been uncovering, salvaging, and interpreting the past ever since. I worked as an archaeologist for a number of universities and museums, studied mediaeval and modern European history at St. Andrews University, and studied Canadian history and historical geography at the universities of Victoria and British Columbia. My main local attachments have been the shorelines of North Saanich, my family’s log cabin in the Monashee Mountains. My family home (Lake House). Photograph by OLE HEGGEN.

I am the prayer you didn't know you were saying. When you drift into sleep, and somewhere deep within you. It is snowing, I am.
