My name's Adam! I live in Tacoma, WA. I love maps, nature, plants, gardening, and cooking.

Wild orchids, rhododendrons, and bunchberry at Salt Creek Falls in Oregon. The falls themselves (the second tallest in Oregon after Multnomah Falls) were spectacular as well.

Fun local fact for my Washington friends: WA state leads the US in rhubarb production, and of that, the vast majority of acreage is in Pierce County.

In fact, I found out there's a Rhubarb festival in Bonney Lake each year in late June which I'm considering checking out.

Saw some flowering native honeysuckle (Lonicera ciliosa) down at the dog park at Wapato Park, here in Tacoma. Always love this time of year.

Some good news! A right to repair bill just passed the state House and Senate (ESHB 1483) and is onto the governor to sign.

New doggo! This guy - currently named Harry (might rename him, taking sugestions) is a very sweet terrier mix. Getting along great with our other dog.
