#intentionalgratitude: I'm grateful for my new job! In January I started an Americorps position with the Resource crew at Natural Bridge State Park! It's been a wonderful experience, with lots of new friends, new experiences, and new challenges--and being outside in nature (almost) every day. I feel so lucky to be able to spend my "day job" hours hiking into the Appalachians (even with a brush cutter). The program lasts until September, and by the end I'll have a bunch of new natural resource management skills and certifications--and know a whole lot more about VA State Parks. I'm excited to put my science knowledge into practice, and I look forward to what the next nine months bring! #naturalbridgestatepark #americorps #growth #newthings #outsidework #lentenpractice #stillmakingart #keepwatchingforthattoo https://www.instagram.com/p/B9FD2XejZ6j/?igshid=11vyhp5e4oap2
