Paul Sanchez
“She had muscles and a crew cut”
Day9
Today while doing our work in the swamp we came across a giant Thistle. The Thistle stood around 5 feet. Much larger then our thistle in California.
Day 9
After a day of rain the swamps were full of water. Roughly 1-2 feet of standing water. Alex in the picture below is taking off his shoe as it was full of water from stepping in the wrong place.
Day 8
Last night after the plantation. We went to rock and bowl. This bowling alley has a full dance floor and a nice sized bowling alley. It felt like an old fashion hoedown.
Paul Sanchez at Chikie Wah Wah
The group had a wonderful time this evening enjoying the music of Paul Sanchez. I was thrilled to find out what a kind person he was and how much he cared about the community. It felt great to support a fantastic musician and caring member of the New Orleans community and culture.
The journey to understanding Ventura County residential water usage & behaviors
I have been on a mission to determine if relationships exist between demographic characteristics, ecological identity and water use conservation methods and concern. The data for this study has been collected through an online survey mechanism using qualtrics. Dispersal methods seemed to have proven beneficial during the initial weeks of the survey start date, but the participation seems to have dwindled. I believe a refreshed outlook on dispersal methods is in order. I have decided to include hard copies of the survey in the data collection in hopes of increasing participation.
Word is Getting Out!
I am very excited to share that the Frances Huggins Community Health Clinic is getting some recognition! A BIG THANK YOU to Nick Timiraos of the Wall Street Journal for tweeting our recent interview with NPR. Check out the link below!

Fun times at Delacroix!!
We moved on to complete transects at Delacroix park today. It’s a much different forest with a more in-tact over canopy and larger woody plants. It’s a little wet but it’s fun to see a different part of the forest!
Crawfish Boil!!!
We had our crawfish boil today at the Woodland Plantation! And a little tree frog joined in on the action
