BILLEH NICKERSON

If you search

V4G 1N4

on Google Maps,

you’ll discover

it’s in Delta, BC—

a city named

after the triangular

tract of land

at the river’s mouth.

You don’t have to be

a delta lover

to appreciate this,

nor should you ignore

the beauty

of the small red knob

that pinpoints

the journey
