Good People in DC :)

Forgot my helmet, gloves, and glasses hanging on my bike….for a tour, 4 hours and still there!  Living in DC where you wake up and your car window is smashed, I was very impressed.  Granted it was at the Zoo in NW DC and at the Smithsonian National Zoo, I am still very happy that everything was still there!

35 Year Goal: 62,333

Not much more to say…this past weekend I reached 62,333!  It is sure taking a long time.  I have been volunteering for 17 months in DC and knew that it would take 35 years or so in order to get there.  

1,000,000

For the billionaires out there, 1 million does not seem like and much.  With me talking for more than 900 people each weekend, I would not think it would take so long, but the calculator does not lie, I checked a while back and changed my estimate to 30 years and now, it looks like 21 years….still a long time, but definitely a long term goal and a fulfilling one 🙂

To recap…..

  • 462 Hours
  • 26 Zoo Tours
  • 14851 Interpreting at the Zoo
  • 47482 Visitor Services at the most visited museum in the world.. Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum.
