| Introduction | I have always been in love with the natural world. My favorite times were when I was at camp walking in the woods, canoeing on a river, looking for tadpoles, turning over rocks to find hidden treasures, watching daddy longlegs, and being next to my grandmother in her farm garden. I strived to give my children these experiences, and now my 4 grand daughters. I volunteered as a docent at Brookfield Zoo for 10 years, followed by 10 years as an employee in their Education Department teaching school groups. I later worked as a tour guide for a pilgrimage company, taking people to Israel, Egypt, and Europe. I then took 4 years off to care for my beloved in-laws. Now, I am back to learning, and teaching about the natural wonders of the world that can be found in our own backyards. |
| Interests | I love to do art projects with my grandkids, especially if I can incorporate a nature lesson. I am also a quilter. |
| Favorite movies | Pride and Prejudice (all versions), The English Patient, The Color Purple, Anna and the King, Jesus of Nazareth, The Thorn Birds, Blast From the Past, V for Vendetta, and pretty much all super hero movies |
| Favorite music | I enjoy Classical, Opera, Singer/Songwriter, 80s |
| Favorite books | Tale of Two Cities, Jane Eyre, Count of Monte Cristo, but I tend to always have field guides somewhere near by. |
