I am

I am an educator. I am an environmental and outdoor educator. I am a naturalist. I have a name tag and everything.

I am a photography enthusiast. I like to buy books with great photographs in them, peruse online photo albums, carry my camera with me everywhere (and not just my smartphone), constantly look at scenes as if I  had a frame around my eye, and take photos from different angles.

I am a friend. I like to join my friends for gatherings. Some college friends transitioned to young adult friends. I decided to go with a homemade costume for our little Halloween themed gathering, titling my outfit "Mother Nature".

I am currently not a roommate, but I have been up until this recent time in my life. It's always a good day spending time with one of my old roommates.

Mary and I:

I am a neat person. I like to keep my living space organized. I haven't finished decorating yet, but here's a little peek at the layout of my living room in the apartment.

I am a person that likes to exercise. I go in and out of the habit of exercising, but I checked out the little "gym" in town this afternoon with my friend and co-worker - Sarah. I think I may be spending some regular time up here with her over the next few months. It's a small building, but it gives me access to some thing, a refuge from the weather, and a good motivator.

Shorter post this evening. I've had a pretty full day but feeling well, and life is good. Hope you all have a great week! Can you believe it's November already?
