Not in the mountains...

"Take your Jed to work" day at Fish and Game

I'm on a little "stay-cation", between my busiest winter work season ever, and a long spring trip to Alaska. And it's awesome. I've done things I would never do otherwise, like volunteer to collar and monitor endangered Sierra Nevada Bighorn Sheep, gone rock climbing, moved into my car, rested a ton, exercised for less than an hour at a time, socialized like never before, and ate too much chocolatey desserts. Pretty luxurious.

I've also skied Mount Tom and practiced rescue skills in preparation for my course in Alaska, but those are not vacation-like things, so they don't count.

Howie in the big mountains!

All this, and I still am managing to get some business-type stuff done. Ooh-Rah!
