Numbers Game
Who's counting? Likely most of us! Amzapp has passed 5000 observations [congratulations!], Ellen5 is gunning for 10,000 (should we start a lottery on predicting the date? I pick Oct 3, inshallah!) I have enough pics un-uploaded to pass 1k, not that I know what the heck I photographed beyond animal, vegetable, or mineral.
No, numbers may not be the goal here but are a fun sideshow. :) Important? Nothing cosmic, but it can be motivating. A game within a game. And as somebody said, the object of life is to find a game worth playing.

Way it's been going, I change my prediction to Aug 26.

Here's something to keep you busy after uploading the 1000 observations on your to-do list. Some of the counties in the Panhandle area are under-represented on iNat. Hale County is one of them. I've been trying to get up there as much as I can, but people keep taking my free time away from me. So if you're ever bored and looking for a place to go, there are miles and miles of Ag backroads to explore.
Thank you, Amzapp! Will put Hale in the Tomorrow File. The way certain counties get short shrift reminds me of thoughts in a previous in carnation. 30 years ago I found that 8 Texas counties had no lawyer. Zero. Some counties as big as some states. Opportunity knocked, but I did not answer.
Nice to see people pass these milestones.
I want to get out to Tahoka soon, do an overnight camp (at least). Anybody up for it?
Might be, meself. Like to take a better look at caliche slopes and early morning birds. See if there are more Escobaria. That Tony Hewetson LEAS talk showed how much I missed during my one late morning there.
I'd be up for it! National Moth Week is fast approaching (end of July). That might be a good time.
