Got a job (for real, this time!)

Yeahhhhhh!

I got a message yesterday from a guy with the Forest Service in Fort Collins, Colorado, straight up offering me a job! No interview or anything. I love the feds!

So I called back for details and.... I'm moving back to Colorado for the summer! Yippee!

The job is surveying for rare plants in forest service land around CO - from the Wyoming border, to west of Rocky Mt. NP, to Denver. It is myself and a female partner and we obviously travel a lot - stay in hotels or bunkhouses. I stay in firefighter bunkhouses when in Fort Collins, which is where I will be based. AND I got the pleasant surprise of remembering that the Forest Service pays more than the Park Service for the same pay grade... I will MAKE money this summer! Despite the fact I have to come back to MI at least 4 times between June and July.

So May 29th I will have a new home until Sept 3rd or Oct 1st, depending on what I chose, or until I start grad school.
