Much needed time out this weekend, jamming with one of my best friends, catching up, and sharing some amazing pupusas together.

I was fortunate to visit the Goldstone Observatory earlier this year and learn about the DSN and the various missions. Truly remarkable!

#FBF to my time as a sustainability fellow at Colorado State University, where I contributed this post about how grateful we should be to share the world with our froggy (and other amphibian) friends! sustainability.colostate.edu/humannature/...

Incredibly difficult! I’ll follow with 4, though there are at least 10 others I could swap out.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, or Alice In Chains.

Been on the Big Island for a few days and it’s definitely living up to the hype for naturalists! Yes the many invaders suck..but at least they’re pretty to look at?
