I have updated the site title to match the new domain, and the new themes to be explored here 🙂

Again, it’s summer, so allow me to share some re-wilding (well, sorta…) that I’ve been up to in my yard. I do enjoy varietals, so excuse the not strict wild-typing here. Otherwise, I have several natives to at least the state level, if not county. (Probably my next project is going to be separating that […]

I decided it was worth it to get to the longest totality in the […]

Today was my first day guiding for fall fest this year! I was so glad my friend Emily invited me to co-lead the kayak trip with her.

What a perfect way to celebrate our workshop well received: a hike along Medicine Bow trail in the alpine zone of Rocky Mountain National Park!
