Hey there George! Wow that picture! Gorgeous! When I was doing the ranger gig in Sequoia Kings Canyon I NEVER go over the beauty. Everything from the giant sequoias to a carpet of pink tiny flowers just left my jaw flapping in the wind no matter how many times I’d see them. I started there as a seasonal and went permanent in the my first season. I was in heaven and then I had to go screw it up by going East with the NPS, which led me down a rabbit hole I thought I’d never get out of. I’ll not tip my hand too much because it’s a story I want to tell in its entirety.

So now I’m curious about the new hats. I’ll have to look them up! Cheers!!S Lynn.
