Cooper at Bendix Woods

Lindsay, Cooper, and I took a quick walk this afternoon at Bendix Woods County Park in St. Joseph County, Indiana for me to prepare for a field trip I am leading there next weekend for Shirley Heinze Land Trust.  Lucky for us, Cooper loves hiking, and he seemed right at home with the blooming Trillium grandiflorum, Enemion biternatum, and Asarum canadense.

 

Happy dog!!

After hiking at a new park, Cooper seems amazingly more calm when we get home.

Changes

There have been some changes at the Namestnik house recently.  First, after over 15 years at JFNew and Cardno JFNew, I left my job and founded Orbis Environmental Consulting with a bat/wildlife biologist and an archaeologist.  Check us out on the web, on Facebook and on LinkedIn.

 

Then, a week ago, we became the proud parents of an 8 month old Australian Cattle Dog puppy named Cooper.

 

 

Wish us luck!!
