Over the Peaks and the Pines

Monday, January 25, 2010

In much of Canada, the only sure way in and out of remote sites is a helicopter, and Fireweed Helicopters is one of the best, serving the mining and seismic industry in Northern BC and the Yukon. Don’t take our word for it – go scope out their services at their crisp, simple new website, where every aspect of their business is right at your fingertips, including weather updates.

Even if you don’t need a helicopter just this moment, you’re sure to enjoy the stunningphoto gallery of pristine snowfields, rugged mountains, northern lights and more. Usually there’s a Fireweed ‘copter in there somewhere, loaded with fuel and supplies, or in one picture hoisting a house!

In the summer season, Fireweed Helicopters are out over wild country working on forest fire suppression and wildlife management, and when things aren’t too busy they might be available for a swing around Dawson, maybe taking in the Klondike Goldfields or Tombstone Park, over some of the most amazing landscape in the world.Whether you want industrial travel or a glimpse of pure mountain beauty, you can easily check ahead by clicking their contact link

To our Clients and Friends of Modern Earth

Thursday, January 14, 2010


By now you’ve all heard about the horrific earthquake which has struck the poorest country in the western hemisphere.. Haiti.

Interesting tidbit about Haiti.. They were (and still are) the site of the only “successful” slave revolt in the Americas.. And have been paying for it in poverty and despair ever since.

My mother is Haitian, so that makes me only a few generations removed from the slave trade myself. Haiti was already badly off, but this tragedy will only deepen their pain.

Google has donated $1M... we’re not Google, but we have donated $500 to the relief efforts there through the Mennonite Central Committee on behalf of the Earthlings.

There are many worthwhile organizations, both secular like Doctors Without Borders, or faith-based, that are helping during this time of crisis. If the plight of the Haitian people moves you to do so - please make a donation. On behalf of my family both here, and there (everyone is fine) - we thank you.
