The bright shining snow
slips away from roofs, shrinking
by degrees, droplets
forming puddles, little streams
giving away to lawns, spring.

“Floods Inundate West End,” Winnipeg Tribune. April 8, 1932. Page 1.
----
Spring floods in St. James and the west end of Winnipeg Thursday turned streets into huge lakes and mighty rivers. Today the worst is over. In St. James Thursday afternoon 30 men worked till 8 p.m. opening drains to permit the water to go. The top picture shows a resident of King Edward St., St. James, picking his way carefully along the submerged sidewalk close to his home.
Below is a resident of Dundas st., Winnipeg, floating down to the corner grocer store on a raft.

A Small Moment // Cornelius Eady
I walk into the bakery next door
To my apartment. They are about
To pull some sort of toast with cheese
From the oven. When I ask:
What's that smell? I am being
A poet, I am asking What everyone else in the shop
Wanted to ask, but somehow couldn't;
I am speaking on behalf of two other
Customers who wanted to buy the
Name of it. I ask the woman
Behind the counter for a percentage
Of her sale. Am I flirting?
Am I happy because the days
Are longer? Here's what She does: She takes her time
Choosing the slices. "I am picking
Out the good ones," she tells me. It's
April 14th. Spring, with five to ten
Degrees to go. Some days, I feel my duty;
Some days, I love my work.

This car has been sitting outside of my apartment block all winter with four flat tyres, today the tyres are gone and the jack stands have collapsed into the mud. #bummer

do you have a lake territory map that's color coded?
I didn't, so I pulled it up into paint and quickly slapped some color on it!
Blue is RiverClan, Purple is ShadowClan, Yellow is ThunderClan, Green is WindClan
And everything in red is contested. And this is BEFORE SkyClan moves in. I tried to wrench out lots of the 'clear' landmark boundaries so the borders are waaaay more arbitrary.
ThunderClan fights WindClan over the dry gorge and the sparse forest beyond it, and fights ShadowClan over the mixed wood to the north.
ShadowClan's territory is quite small, but contained behind the diamond-shaped steam. I wanted to keep the vibe that the streams veer inward and crush the border, causing them to have to throw their weight around when they need hunting space.
WindClan has lots of territory, to the point of not really needing the contested land except in dire situations. That said, Onestar still thinks it's important to assert dominance. They also have access to some highland area, and an alternate path to the Moonpool.
RiverClan's territory is deceptively large but not bountiful. It's mostly barren, with a lot of human settlement (need to add in the next draft). They get most of their food from the central river and lake; but fight for the southern delta and northern islets when they need more.
And speaking of the northern islets? That ball of red just below ShadowClan is contested by THREE clans. Shadow, Thunder, AND River fight over it all the time, it's Sunningrocks times two. And!! More importantly!! Now ProtagonistClan can access ALL of the other clans easily.
No more RiverClan exclusion. The two clans that find it hardest to meet up are WindClan and ShadowClan... and I'm planning on giving them tunnels to use, if I ever need a Shadow/Wind warrior interaction.
