Absolutely nothing to do with architecture, but I think my new rescue puppy (australian cattle dog/blue heeler) is newsworthy. She came from the fabulously tireless Terra @ Prarie Animal Rescue Society and required a LONG drive up north to pick her up. I’d never done that drive before – it’s beautiful country. I was particularly taken with a stretch of highway where a fire had gone through and nature was returning. Blackened trunks stood sentinel over the new bright green growth of conifers below. Very Group-of-Seven moment and more inspiration for design. Can’t escape it, especially when you’re trapped in a car with nothing to do but think. The quiet was awesome!
