Well… the dilemma of publicly highlighting important work vs raising scrutiny from federal agencies is not something I was even anticipating to navigate. Supporting my colleagues now seemingly means keeping quiet about their amazing work. Oof.

About 20 years ago - our first Thanksgiving together - we started the tradition of using this cow creamer thing for gravy. It is every bit as disgusting today as it was back then.

Perfect night for a football game in Corvallis! #GoBeavs

Sometimes Department Head means lots of paperwork, policies, budgets, and so on. But sometimes it means you get to explore campus with a new friend so their parent can focus on class when their plans go sideways. Today was the later sort of sometimes.

Perfect summer evening watching the Corvallis Knights. ⚾️

River day with these goofballs!

Guess who just racked the 45-lb’ers to squat?!? Almost exactly a year post-accident and things are trending in the right direction!

Polar plunge to ring in the new year. Friends are the ones you freeze with, I guess? ❄️🥶

NYE matchup for Beavers Women’s Basketball vs the UofO ducks. Our favorite way to spend an afternoon! #GoBeavs

#TurkeyTrot 🏃 Finished my first 5k (and longest run) since knee surgery last March. I jogged about 2/3 and walked the rest. Thrilled to be recovering!

Final push before break with Jasmine, finishing a survey of about 500-m of Oak Creek. Lots of hours into this, but the science she’s working on is going to be awesome!!

Listening to some deeper cuts with the kiddos tonight - Tupac’s California Love includes “…now it’s ‘95…”. Feeling my years, but apparently all the words are still stored deep in my brain. 28 years ago!?! Not possible, Tupac.

Happy Halloween! Went for a #PNW themed water drop with mountains and river this year.

Activate mentorship. Kicking off the mentor training and orientation for OSU’s year-long Leadership Academy! Great group of 50 leaders providing 1:1 mentorship of promising undergrads at #OregonState

Double-jab day at the Flu + COVID clinic on campus!

Too cloudy to see the eclipse. But in the plus side we look like a 1980’s music video.
