1974 I finished my Bachelor of Science degree at CSU and started a M.S. program and UC Davis. I got married. Gulp. I got my first job that wasn't working…

Chronicle 1974

In my teens I discovered a seminal book in the conservation movement, The Sand County Almanac by Aldo Leopold. His series of essays described a land ethic that would guide my education and career choices for the next 50 years. My blog mirrors Leopold's Wisconsin essays with my version rooted in Whidbey Island, a long winding isle in the middle of Puget Sound. It's an eclectic mix of topics and images based on my curiosity and interests in the natural world, travel and photography. I hope you enjoy it.
