About this Guide
Strange, but fun!
I have been teaching for over 30 years, and there has been nothing like the past few years. I’ve spent my entire adult life on a university campus as an undergraduate student, a masters student, a doctoral student, and instructor. So I wasn’t sure how it would feel to have to spend time away from the sounds and sights of a bustling campus community making videos around the state. It is strange, but coming up with new ways to try to teach has been a lot of fun. Every day I feel lucky to have a job and wonderful people around the world to share adventures with.

Behind-the-Scenes
I’m unpacking an unidentified cave-dwelling Cubaris sp. “Panda King” from Vietnam. Note how “bold” they are despite a small size.
There is a lot more plastic beach debris than I remember on the Oregon Coast. Mark and I now collect some on every trip.
