DNA replication, repair, genomic integrity, cancer, and aging at Drexel Univ. I fly fish a lot, but not really trying to catch fish. I drive a lot for my kids’ sports, but fish and hike locally. I like beer a lot, but I am a scientist and educator.

Rain throughout the weekend, but I still did quite a bit of walking around grocery stores and a big outdoor retailer, and even got to see some trout 🙃 Also, my wife got a pair of rain boots, and I got a bleacher seat 😄 #FlyFishing #Fishing #Nature #Hiking #Walking #Photography

#FluorescenceFriday Actually, it’s bioluminescence, not fluorescence 🤔
But I’d love to see these mushrooms glowing in the dark someday. They were deep in the woods, though. Hopefully, I’ll find some growing near a road next time! 🍄✨ #Mushroom #FungiFriends #FlyFishing #Nature #Photography

#ThursdayThoughts Pine Creek, PA Downstream from here was full of Fallfish, but farther upstream, I might find trout 🤔 It was getting dark, so I stopped at the bridge and walked all the way back downstream to my car. Next time, I’ll start from here 😊 #FlyFishing #Nature #Hiking #Photography
A rocky creek flows through dense green forest after rain, with high, slightly murky water rushing around rocks and patches of vegetation. A small bridge is visible upstream through the trees.

#ThursdayThoughts Pine Creek, PA Foamy 🙂 The water was high after the rain, and the temperature was 19°C, a bit warmer than I expected. This section of the creek was full of fallfish and creek chubs, hoping to see some trout further upstream 🤔 #FlyFishing #Fishing #Nature #Hiking #Photography
A rain-swollen woodland creek flows through dense green forest, with slightly murky brown water and a small grassy island in the middle. A thick band of white foam collects across the foreground.
