I think it not a coincidence…

As usual, summer needed to be away from Utah, in a beautiful place where I could make some money to chip away at my nagging credit card debt and provide a fund for whatever next step I choose to take in pursuit of finishing my super super senior year at USU. Never been and had been told how much I’d like and fit into the Pacific Northwest , so after a coolworks.com search and application process I got hired at all three resorts I applied for. Decided on the Kalaloch Lodge in Olympic National Park (that way I’d have access to three amazingly different ecosystems all in the same area! Coast, rainforest and mountains would be a perfect summer playground).

Middle of the summer rolls around and I gotta start thinking of what I wanna do afterwards…so on a sleepless night that I happen to intercept the chef’s internet connection with a stolen password…I get looking on Seattle’s Craigslist and stumble upon an environmental education outreach position with Grays Harbor College, just 70 miles south of where I’m living! Could it have been fate?
