This site celebrates the majesty of the Natural world and invites visitors to rekindle their relationships with the outdoors. Five principles govern the use of this site: Preservation, Conservation, Education, Sportsmanship, and Fellowship. Posts to this site are intended to promote the wise use and proper management of natural resources, encourage stewardship of open spaces, and bridge the disconnect between humans and the world around them.
My psyche rests on the cusp of science and art. I am most comfortable working outside among a diversity of organisms, and I revel in the infinitesmal. I devote much of my time to the conservation of natural places and resources. This is not to say I am an environmentalist. I am a true conservative. I recognize that all natural resources are of value to civilization either directly or indirectly, so I promote the wise use of all resources to preserve their availability and market value.
