Old wooden pilings reflected in Colpoy's Bay, Ontario shortly after sunrise for #WaterWednesday.

An image from the summer I never got around to posting.

I highly recommend digging out those old mixtapes or making a playlist of all the songs you loved to belt out way back when. V therapeutic.

If you're wondering how I'm coping (with life, not the skunk): I am loudly singing along to mixtapes I made in college, watching cartoons, and generally being the middle-aged version of my teenage self.

My ADHD has been on a TEAR this month, for better and for worse. I was just thinking, "okay, I really have to focus so I can get to bed," then a skunk sprayed someone outside.

Even the universe is like, "Haha, no focus for you!"

overlooking a series of circular water filled tanks of a sewage treatment plant at night. 

lights line a long brick building on the horizon as a blue-black sky is stark behind a veil of thin puffy clouds in the distance.

good night, sewers.
good night, streams.
good night, operations and maintenance teams.
good night, settling tanks.
good night, stream banks.
good night, engineers, scientists, crews, managers, inspectors, analysts too.
a good night for us means serving with care.

good night, sewers, everywhere.

More geophysics fun at Carrizo Plain! This GPS station behind the visitor center had good signage on the basics of why & how GPS is used for measuring the station's precise position, to measure movement along the san andreas fault.

Would have been better if they'd linked to the data, tho.

Sunset at 7:20pm makes me happy! Waiting for a little more light to fade before checking my route for woodcock.

They’ve posted another comment opportunity that’s probably more relevant. It’s their intent to do a DEIS and seeking input for analysis of the alternatives. It’s following the new NEPA.

It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.
