I got to go in 2021. I met other amazing educators, got to work on the Flyby Trike site, found tons of fossils like gar scales, teeth, and jawbones. And the cherry on top: you get the opportunity to bring the experience to your students with fossil kits.

Here's a picture of our snowy courtyard. It was from the first snowfall in Chicago a few days ago. It's so calming to watch and enjoy.

Fall break has begun and my dog has the right mood for it.

Here’s a rotifer.

Making my own moss safari as inspired by @mosssafari.bsky.social! Collected some moss from around my school and letting it sit overnight. Had an initial look to see what was already there.

From May 2024 in Chicago. Absolutely stunning to see the northern lights on the shores of Lake Michigan.

Love the little creatures we find on our evening walks.
