Thank you, James for letting me share a bit of my work and for pushing me to go outside of my comfort zone

This happened to me! I’ve been waiting for the grant money I was awarded 14 months ago and have not received that- but they did manage to send me a 1099 for it!
Ms. Hixon was my teacher throughout high school, my swimming coach, and my boss for my first job as a lifeguard. Corey always brought so much laughter whenever he was around. My heart aches for this wonderful family that gives so much to everyone else. They deserve justice.

The results are in! Over 1.6 MILLION observations made worldwide by community scientists! Over 2,000 of these are rare/endangered species. Check out some more stats in this summary:
Here’s more information on the brown anole lizard in Hawaiʻi! 3 days to the start of the #CNC2022 #CityNatureChallenge #CNCoahu
And the observation period of the #CityNatureChallenge 2022 has ended. 1,216 observations made by 107 participants! Check out which species were the most observed on the island of O‘ahu. Now help us identify all the observations! inaturalist.org/projects/city-…
We still have all of today left to make observations and we've already surpassed our numbers from last year! Let's keep the momentum going! Already over 1,000 observations! Let's make this last day count.
I'm going to be looking around my neighborhood and then head out to a hike. Where will you make your observations?

Join us in documenting Oahu’s biodiversity during the 2021 City Nature Challenge! We will compete with others around the world to crowdsource biodiversity data for the world’s cities. DM for more info. @GeckoVal @rcthomson
Felt so pleased opening this styrofoam-free delivery. Thank you NEB! Initiatives like this can lead to waves of change!
