It was my first day back at work at the park after a long, cold (not to mention broke) winter. My boss and I spent the morning catching up on what's new, both professionally and personally, then we went out and surveyed the trails for damage. The afternoon was spent raking picnic sites. The weather was gorgeous, the birds were singing, and physical labor makes me very satisfied. Our osprey pair are courting-- they mate for life, but go through courtship every spring to re-inforce the pair bond (I think maybe human couples could learn something from that). I LOVE MY JOB!!!!!!!!
