We got thrown in. Work doesn’t start until Oct 1. but on Sept. 27, we were all initiated to our new role… Yes, it is true, I was a salmon on a knee scooter and got quite a lot of attention… Matt rowed a long boat as a salmon.
It was the Chehalis Watershed Festival, one of the culminating events that allowed us to meet many of the partner organizations we’ll be working with in one fell swoop. Despite the fish costume, I really got excited about everything we are going to be involved with.
Tons of awesome activities, booths, and even a freaking fish pond with 200 live trout for kids to catch and take home. Yes, I also butchered my fish friends…the first time I’ve ever gutted a fish! Demonstrations and models really conveyed the environmental concepts in visual and hands-on ways. Oh, and they had alpacas! The whole time I was thinking, gosh, I wish I had something like this when I was young!
And this is the kinda stuff I'm gonna be doing! Sweet dude, sweet!
