The\u00a0amazing\u00a0people I have had the\u00a0privilege\u00a0of working with, the\u00a0opportunities\u00a0I have\u00a0received, and the friends I have made along the way have all be nothing short of spectacular.<\/p>\n<p>Working with the Springs Preserve has been amazing I get to work with the public \u00a0in a beautiful garden, which I can now say I am a part of, is a wonderful way to spend my\u00a0Sundays\u00a0at work. I get to work with children and\u00a0discusses\u00a0different\u00a0botany topics, it is really rewarding when you get to see them get\u00a0really\u00a0involved and interested in the lessons. Working in the plant\u00a0propagation\u00a0facility is a great way for Allison and I to work with volunteers and manage watering\u00a0schedule, planting projects, and catalog the species in the facility.<\/p>\n<p>Still the\u00a0field\u00a0work is the most rewarding\u00a0experience. The fact that I have seen more of the Mojave\u00a0Desert in the four month I have been in Vegas, than most of the people whom have lived in the city for 20 years really makes me\u00a0proud\u00a0of the work I am doing. The\u00a0opportunity\u00a0to explore the\u00a0different\u00a0areas, from\u00a0creosote to pinyons,\u00a0 and brush up on my keying skills is wonderful.\u00a0I would never trade this\u00a0experience\u00a0for anything, I am just amazed I am only doing this for another month.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>And I got to backpack the Grand Canyon south rim to the\u00a0Colorado\u00a0River this week end, so thats cool too.<\/p>\n<p>Dan Goldbacher<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=17573\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17573\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-17573\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P61303231-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P61303231-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P61303231-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P61303231-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P61303231-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=17575\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17575\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-17575\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6170532-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6170532-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6170532-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6170532-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6170532-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=17576\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17576\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-17576\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6160454-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6160454-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6160454-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6160454-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6160454-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/?attachment_id=17574\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-17574\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-17574\" src=\"https:\/\/dev-clm-blog.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6130349-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6130349-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6130349-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6130349-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/blog.clminternship.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/P6130349-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It may be getting hot (kinda like standing in front of 500\u00a0blow dryers), but I still would not trade this\u00a0experience\u00a0for anything.
