I am a college student from St. Louis, interested in writing, and several people have suggested that I start a blog. I love nature and the outdoors and am determined to become a national park ranger. I have done two internships at national parks through the Student Conservation: at Theodore Roosevelt National Park North Unit, ND, in summer 2005, and at Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument, CO, in summer 2006. It was during this second internship that people responded to my long emails describing my adventures and episodes of getting lost, to tell me I should start a blog. So, here goes!
