Such indeed is the economy of nature that secret relations and astonishing concordances exist throughout the whole vast weft of things. There are no loose ends; everything is consequent and ordered. Hidden harmonies meet and mingle.

G. V. Legros in Fabre, Poet of Science

I remember it being a rather nasty day weather-wise. An early spring afternoon in Anchorage, windy and with a light rain “coming in sideways”. In retrospect, I cannot recall what compelled me to go for a walk on such a day, but it was probably something less than commendable, probably needing a drag of smoke. I didn’t know it at the time, but it would be a day that would change my life.
