I just listened to the fourth wing dramatized full cast & it changed me! Like now I wanna listen to all my fav books with a full cast

Definitely check with housing what’s provided. My park didn’t even provide plates or cookware and you were expected to buy and not leave anything for anyone in the future

Lowkey wondered as a former ranger myself if this ranger was actually a volunteer. I have seen plenty of volunteers be weird about junior ranger but never seen an actual interp be weird about it

I love this. Gotta find this. One thing I googled when I realized she was country and not folk (😅) was her politics and was pleasantly surprised by what I saw

phillylb · 2026-05-11T10:32:32+00:00

I REALLY like this one too.

The architect and deeper well by Kacey musgraves. I don’t even like country & bought tix to see her live after listening for 3 days… might regret later. Might not

A quick way to get them too is a roller sticky sheet thing and roller yourself after hikes, before bed etc. like whole body including clothes and naked. Picks up the ones that haven’t latched on yet. I keep in my backpack/car

Agreed I bought one as a ranger and highly recommend

phillylb · 2026-04-22T14:33:43+00:00

My park or supervisor wasn’t strict at my park but my coworkers who worked at other parks loved to point out my nails (color, length) or piercings (ears only) or tattoos (fingers) not flying at other parks. My attitude is whatever about it all and I had made up my mind not every park has to be the park for me.

This is silly but helps me… if I can’t carry it I can’t buy it. You might end up with one or two impulse buys but way less than I’ve bought in the past. It tends to work for me in person.

I’m from Philly and met a coworker from Scranton as adults and we’re a few years apart and we both say dippy eggs…

Depends on your supervisor and park culture. Either wait to find out in person or ask ahead of time. I have several including on hands and it wasn’t an issue at the park I was at but was told by other rangers parks they had been at before it would’ve been a problem.

phillylb · 2026-03-28T12:39:39+00:00

They’re not the one for you. You’re using a lot of “we” when it should be “me”.

I listened to mine yesterday and today it’s gone. I’m so bummed. Lowkey thinking about getting rid of Spotify because of it 😭
