Ahhh... autumn. This season has always been my favorite. The scenery gets better, so does the food, I can finally layer clothing over my already faded tanned skin, and people always seem to walk with purpose.
This autumn's purpose is school. I'm finally back in school as a full-time student. This first week has passed and I'm already overwhelmed with homework, luckily found a good job working for ISU soybean breeding program, and have become an official DNR water quality volunteer. Not bad for one week.

This is where I took the certification class for the DNR. It was really a beautiful park. I wish I had taken my camera. These pictures really don't do it justice at all.
