Up, Up and Away!

Today marks my last day at Moosejaw. I've been here for over eight years, which is definitely the longest time I've ever worked anywhere.

I'm leaving the company to seek new adventures and opportunities. It's a bittersweet mix of excitement and nerves - but it's time for a huge change - so off I go. Final destination - TBD.

Serengeti Sunsent

Ah, Tanzania. Home to the Great Rift Valley, Mt. Kilimanjaro, and the gorgeous islands of Pemba and Zanzibar just to name a few. WOW. More to come...

The Vanishing

I was forwarded this article from Zakk, my co-worker a couple days ago. Patrick Drew writes of places that are disappearing due to climate change and global warming. Glacier melt, tundra thaw, and sinking atolls (such as the Maldives pictured above) could be a memory only seen in books like this in the coming generations.

What I've Suspected All Along!

I am one of them. Fully terrified of the ocean and convinced that I will be the person who gets bit by a shark. This fear has also transcended into an obsession with sharks. My coworker, Gary, shared this print with me. For sure getting one. Statistics do show that one is most likely to be attacked by a shark in Florida. I totally learned that on Shark week - I'm sure the most credible source for all things tiburon.
