All services to and from Canada are temporarily suspended due to national union strike action.

This is on the Australia Post page, in case anyone is waiting for mail from Canada.

I’m getting a new knee in 4 weeks, another part of the thrills of old age. The right knee is really starting to affect my gait — as well as my foot and assorted muscles on that side. I’ll be glad to get it over with.

Enjoy your spring and summer that’re coming in on your side of the globe. May you find many tide-pools to photograph.
