#9 Grand Canyon! 4 months ago

One of my past times is archaeology, and I volunteer at the Grand Canyon. I like it for several reasons. First the canyon is so beautiful and is constantly changing. Second, there is quite a bit of archaeology at the canyon and I have learned most of the pottery types. Third, it’s a rewarding feeling volunteering to help understand a part of the country’s history. And I enjoy camping out. I understand why people fall in love with the canyon. It’s so huge that you could never really explore the entire area in one lifetime.

findagrave.com 4 months ago

There’s a really interesting cemetery nearby where I go and take pictures of graves for people who post to findagrave.com. For all the years I have lived in Pasadena, I had never visited this cemetery mainly because they tend to be places I avoid. Well, it’s really beautiful and there are a lot of graves from people who founded Pasadena and Altadena. It’s actually quite nice to spend an afternoon there.



Work at NASA
It's a fun place to work 4 months ago

I kind of fell into my job at JPL, but once I landed there I knew that I wanted to work there. There are so many different types of jobs available – obviously engineering is the big field but all NASA centers need IT people, administrators, etc. There are even Fire Departments that need people. So if you really want to do this, find a location, make some contacts and be persistent.

My favorite work involved supporting flight projects and going to KSC. It’s so different than JPL but we had tons of fun while we were there.
