I am a retired teacher having left after 38 years teaching in NW Indiana. My wife and I cmoved here summer of 2017. I've always enjoyed being in natural environments and have a strong desire to take care of them. I love hiking and learning new things. I see natural environments and our connections to them as essential to our well being as people and communities. All that makes us fully human, I believe, finds its richest expression when we connect regularly to natural areas
