ABOUT ME

I'm an outdoor educator in the mountains of southern California - a pretty swell gig. Want to know the difference between a ponderosa and a jeffrey pine? Just ask!
I like being outside and learning how one thing affects another affects another affects another.

Teach, Learn, Share

I started crocheting about two years ago, and have dabbled with that a little since. I also built a bike a while back out of scrap parts, without knowing much of anything about bikes. Can't say I'm an expert in crocheting or bike building/maintenance, but I know a thing or two. I also like to bake my own bread.
