Last week I had to cancel a @Delta international flight because federal funding for my @Fulbright award was rescinded. I need "proof of cancellation" but @Delta seems incapable of providing it. A little help, please?! #customerservice #Delta #sciencefunding #cutbacks

#UWMadison is the top public university in the nation, according to Washington @monthly, boosted by strong scores in metrics measuring a school’s contribution to the public good.
Say it loud, say it proud: On, Wisconsin!

Aldo Leopold moved from Arizona to #Madison, WI in 1924, bringing with him a treasured #clivia plant. 100 years later, this 6th generation cutting - gifted from a friend - is blooming for the first time! #aldoleopold @UWMadison
When you finally get around to cleaning out the deep recesses of the pantry, years after the kids have left home. #benefitsofretirement #emptynest
Have I ever said the #DriftlessRegion is one of my favorite places on Earth? ‘Cause it is! (And not only for the #flyfishing!) #Wisconsin #biodiversity #glaciology #trout #tudare @TroutUnlimited
Delighted to promote writingthewild.org, a 1-year writing journey guided by (daughter) Krissy Kludt (@kristenlkludt) & J. Drew Lanham (@wildandincolor). Terrific slate of guest poets and nature writers! #writingthewild #naturewriting #poetry #earthcare #soulcraft
After having moved into my @UWMadison lab long ago, only today did I learn that I should have inherited a 1964 #Rambler! If anybody has seen it...
Of >20 NSF grants during my career, THIS one was most professionally transformative. Forever grateful, @NSF! (Check out that 2-yr #postdoc stipend!) #NSFPostdoc @UWMadison #chemicalecology #sciencecareers #retirement #cleaningoutfilecabinet #researchgrant
Nearing another record high temp in #Madison today. How we all feel… #squirrel #thermoregulation #toohot
A day in the incomparable #DriftlessRegion. Forest spring, #springcreek, and a few nice #browntrout. #flyfishing #Wisconsin
Continuing the office cleanout: research & manuscript file drawer, 1995-2010. All that paper! Or, so little paper for so much work! @UWMadison #retirement #chemicalecology #plantinsectinteractions #researchcollaboration
Years ago I gave surplus experimental #aspen to the @UWMadison grounds crew, who planted them along Biotron Ck that runs through campus. Now the re-establishing #beaver have discovered them! "Bucky Beaver," anyone? #urbanwildlife @UWMadisonCALS
Cleaning office, and still finding it difficult to dispose of undergraduate course notes from 45 years ago. What if I need them?! #academia #retirement

Surprise of the day! @FaithfulPolitik – at Wisconsin, USA
Thank you to our amazing panel of guests we've had on in 2022. Special shoutout to @RickLindroth, @pbump, @AmandaTylerBJC, @BrianKaylor, and @faithimprovised!
I guess I'd be remiss if I also didn't include the @January6thCmte? 🤣
