Missing Eaton Canyon and a Major Milestone

It was 2 years ago this month that I presented at Eaton Canyon Nature Center Associates' Brown-Bag in-service my first Introduction to Nature Journaling Workshop. ECNCA included in the Paw Prints Oct 2024 edition an article I hoped to entice people to explore nature journaling. 

Reading this old article, I still have the same vision I had then. To get people interested in looking closely at nature, record their observations and by doing so say my catch phrase, "I never noticed THAT before." My 3 keys to start a nature journaling practice STILL apply: 1. Get outside. 2. Connect with community. 3. Start with simple supplies.  

This important 2 year milestone--teaching my first introduction to nature journaling workshop--inspired me to write a Substack post entitled, Who knew some marks on a page could have such power?

Here's that Oct 2024 Paw Prints article: 

That’s a Wrap! Highlights From The Nature Journaling Workshop at McGroarty Arts Center

What an incredible day! I am still energized from teaching this workshop! From the well attended turnout to the "aha moments" the participants shared. For me, this workshop is the culmination from teaching workshops over the last two years, this incarnation of a 2-hour introductory concentrated program.  

Here's what participants said:
