- Norman Gene Macdonald (October 17, 1959 – September 14, 2021) was a Canadian stand-up comedian, actor, and writer whose style was characterized by deadpan delivery, eccentric understatement, and the use of folksy, old-fashioned turns of phrase. He appeared in many films and was a regular guest on late-night talk shows, where he became known for his chaotic, yet understated style of comedy. Many critics and fellow comedians praised his frequent appearances on talk shows, while late-night host David Letterman regarded him as “the best” of stand-up comedians.

The Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge’s 5.5-mile auto route makes for a comfortable, undulating loop for hikers. (Where else can you walk four or five abreast, with leashed dogs and strollers?) You can also drive or bike the auto route, stopping at many viewpoints along the way.
