Excited to continue my adventures in the NDSU Archives today! The Institute for Regional Studies collections and archival records have revealed much. And I got to use this cool "Light Box" to look at slides of early postwar contour farming and shelterbelts! #envhist #envhum #histsci #Ndsu

In a year of hardship and rough transition, I'm touched by my department's generosity of awarding me the "Adventure Historian Award" for the adventurous work and spirit of my service and scholarship. This is also the title my students gave me in the pandemic and it has stuck.
