Special Thanks

I'd like to thank some great folks that have made my stay in Dawson City wonderful and Abundance: The Dawson City Trash Project possible.
In no particular order, THANK YOU:

The friendly and well-dressed KIAC staff, board, and committee,
Tara, for coordinating the first few weeks,
Karen, for airport pick ups and cleaning up after the party even though she should have gone home,
David F, for much-needed social exertions and movies,
Jesse, for a huge and fabulous personality and horrible jokes,
Amy, for coordinating the art camp,
Evelyn, for general sturdiness and friendliness,
Lance, for being there, for the textual ass, and for turning on/off/on/off/on/off the camera,
Mike Y, for the year of lead-up and organization,
David C, for good conversation, boat rides and the coat when I was cold,
Clair, for librarian-help,
Joanne, for introducing me to the museum archives,
Byrun, for good food, having a drill at the post office, and over-volunteering in general,
Jacob, for fabulous trash-talk and comradeship,
Francis, for letting me loot the dump,
Norm C, for the best dump-orientation ever,
Nicole, for asking good questions and taking good art,
Veronica, for the dump runs,
Debbie, for the dump runs,
Our neighbours, for the dump runs,
Aldo, for the dump run with 11 children,
Joan, for co-residing,
the staff at the ice cream store for cheerfully providing odd ice cream requests,
all of the tea-drinkers who provided me with 363 used tea bags,
Klondike Kate's staff for contributing to those tea bags,
all my friends around the world reading this blog and cheering me on,
and to everyone who took some art with them- the piece would have flopped without you!

P.S. And to the jerk who stole my (KIAC's) bike and crashed it: no art for you.
