I am giddy with excitement and anticipation. 🙂 First of all, we have our full BLM range team back together again! As of Monday, rangeland management specialist Ryan Schroeder is fully reinstated and back to work with range specialist Anton Rambur and range tech Laura Heaton at Tres Rios Field Office. And he got to get his hands dirty – literally – with Anton (Laura was under the weather) out in Spring Creek Basin yesterday to …

…uh … just what the heck WERE these guys doing?!
A hint is in the background. 🙂
Leave a guess in the comments and let me know just what the heck you think these funny guys were doing!
All will be revealed soon, and it’s going to be awesome!
Hmmm. A New Spring Creek Basin HMR sign? Planting something. Whatever it is, I’m glad to see these guys getting to do their jobs, bellies in the dirt, and enjoying it! 😁
Right in one. 🙂 Great guess, Sue! And yes, they’re right where they belong. Ryan, in particular, was SO HAPPY to be back doing his job, hands in the dirt – and already teaching me more things!
WHATEVER they are doing – really wonderful to have them all back – I just hope nothing happens to change that.
Yayyy
It IS wonderful to have them all together again. What a waste to fire any hardworking federal employees, especially at the level of the people who do the work! I’m very thrilled to have the team in place, and yes, I hope it continues!
Glad they got their jobs back! Good luck with whatever they are doing!
Me, too! 😉 It was some good prep work that worked out perfectly!
Putting up a new sigh? Or… Making homes for groundhogs!😂
Ha! We don’t have groundhogs – or marmots – at this elevation, and the prairie dogs and ground squirrels and chipmunks certainly don’t need any help. 😉
No idea.
