Park Policy and Field Trip Boots

Today I start a new part time gig, coordinating a Boston- wide coalition working towards a common agenda for public parks and urban green spaces. Yeah me!
Here's the email from the Director:

Hi Tamika,

I hope you get this before tomorrow morning – come prepared for a walk and talk in Franklin Park . We’ll go around 11:00 and spend an hour or two in the park. It may be a littl
e muddy and a little cold, although the sun has been warm and we can walk briskly to warm up.

We’ll start in the office and you can head out whenever you need to. We’ll stay in the upper park not far from the office in case you have to leave before I do.


While I know my chosen field of development and natural resource management is not conducive to my other habit, I was taken aback by her email....mud, cold and brisk walk...on my first day?

Since our planet needs to be saved from habitat loss, invasive species, pollution, population and over consumption, I am prepared to take on the parks wearing mmost comfortable blazer and 'field trip boots'.
Blazer - BCBG
T-Shirt- Old Navy
Jeans - I found them
Boots - Born @DSW(so comfy)
Scarf- Ralph Lauren, Filene's Basement closing down sale

Why: Because the plants will be wearing their best,wont they?


The last two photos are of 'field trip boots' in action in Arizona on alternative spring break in the Navajo Indian reservation.(photos by DWCPP). Yes, they have a 1/4 inch heel. :)

be good.do better. look your best.

When we go through the specification of the term really like, with relations to a close relationship by using another, although like a feeling that is engendered should you have miltchmonkey a better marriage on your own as well - or perhaps as being a sense of higher unity household or humanity , therefore it will become far more extra ordinary that each one someone is seeking in your everyday living is definitely really enjoy.
