I am an avid follower of Astrobites and find that having a companion WordPress site to my advantage. My health is terrible and pursuing knowledge seems to be a reason to get up every morning. I am a persistent volunteer, mainly with children, exploring Astronomy and Gardening with a touch of Geology thrown in.
Would appreciate ideas and connections.
I visit Tower Hill Botanic Garden as a member and as a volunteer with frequency and take children to the Harvard/Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics as part of an after school program for Citizen Schools. Have made many friends in the process.
