9-20-2020 – Margaree Harbour and Whale Cove

September 20, 2020 by DonnaHebert

We went for a long and healing ride Saturday afternoon. I couldn’t bear to read another word about Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s death and the opportunity it gives to the evil in office to replace her on the Supreme Court. Every woman I know is grieving her death and fearing her replacement. To comfort myself and to offer it to others in this moment, I made a slideshow of the photos I took. 

May your name forever be a blessing, Ruth Bader Ginsberg. 

The music is “Ode to Brigid,” in Irish Gaelic, sung by Molly Hebert-Wilson on “The Infinite Dark,” a 2018 recording with poet and reader Jane Yolen, singers and instrumentalists Lui Collins, Max Cohen, myself, Molly, and Sarah Bauhan, who plays “Fisherman’s Song For Calling the Seals” with me here.
