I'm a cabin owner on Lake Shasta, Shasta-Trinity National Forest, in northern California. I've spent +50 summers on and around the lake and have noticed changes through the years that have piqued my interested in journaling and logging those observations. At the same time as I capture new observations, I'm hoping to go back through my photos (thankfully, most are geotagged) and upload older observations. When I was little, we used to go to sleep to the howling of coyotes across our inlet but, over the years, I noticed those cries ceased and I'm not sure what drove them out of the area. We have bear, mountain lion, bobcat, foxes, skunk, river otters, bald eagle, osprey and a host of other birds in the area. Also, a lot of beautiful seasonal flora! Eventually, I'd like to create a nature guide for our little slice of heaven.

I'm also the part-time Field Director for National Forest Homeowners, a non-profit advocating for the preservation and continuance of the USFS Recreation Residence Program - of which I'm a 3rd generation special use permittee. Also known as the "cabin in the woods" program, I attribute my total love for nature and the outdoors to my grandparents who purchased our family cabin when I was a wee kid.
