Studied math & physics, worked designing weapons until I saw how they were used. Took a hard left turn, taught middle school math, union treasurer, and contract bargainer. Retired 6/18/2021.

I had a two-night, three #hike camping trip to #AnzaBorrego over the weekend, but the weather forecast for tonight included 35mph winds with gusts to 50 along with heavy rain, so camping in a wash and hiking through wind-scoured canyons didn't sound like a good plan, so we cut the trip short.

Went out hiking Palo Verde Wash in the desert with friends yesterday. A surprising number of flowers were blooming for this time of year, including so desert milkweed. I didn't see a monarch but did see a queen.

I spent the day in the lowest level of the museum sorting snakes, lizards, and amphibians.

How was your day?

Took a long hike up McGinty Peak with some friends followed by lunch and beer. Highly recommended!
