Q9 #parkchat “…And when I kiss you, just say to me, it's delightful…” There are “lover’s leaps” and “kissing trees” everywhere, it seems. Name a park site you’ve visited that has a connection to romance somehow.

Q6 #parkchat “…You can hear dear Mother Nature murmuring low…” If you could give a park an award for it’s “soundscape”, which park would you choose and why? Is there a particular nature sound you look forward to hearing when you’re out in the wild?

🎶Sing. Sing a Song. Sing out Loud. Sing out Strong…🎶 #parkchat

#ParkChat is trending! Join us now!

Q4 #parkchat “…It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely…” What was the most delicious dessert or ice cream treat you’ve ever had while visiting in a national parkland? Please tell us about the “sweet” parkland experience that has you salivating just thinking about it.

You know we’ve never quite had a #ParkChat quite like this. What do you think of the newest Hall of Fame member’s format? Very delightful I’d say. @yellowstonenpgeek.bsky.social

Q3 #parkchat “…I understand the reason why; you're sentimental, 'cause so am I…” What park place or sight or activity evokes particularly sentimental feelings for you? Where has a parkland moved you to tears?

Q2 #parkchat “…so if you want to go walking, dear, It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely.” It’s your lunch break; you’ve been given the ability to teleport yourself anywhere to hike the most spectacular trail that takes 30 minutes or less. What de-lightful de-lovely trail would beckon you?

Q1 #parkchat. “…The night is young, the skies are clear…” This is a two-part question. Part 1: if you could take a guest to a single park specifically to show them the beauty of the night skies, where would you take them? Part 2: Which park has the clearest skies you’ve ever seen?

@naturetechfam.bsky.social and I in a unanimous vote have selected @yellowstonenpgeek.bsky.social to the #ParkChat Hall of Fame. She has been a tremendous help to us moderating chats including the one today and that she hails from South Dakota doesn’t hurt either. 😂 Congratulations Susan

Q12 #ParkChat who has an announcement or a question?

#ParkChat Q8: Steve Pearce is nominated for the head of Bureau of Land Management. His previous positions have been to sell off public lands. The final Senate vote is in May. Would you consider writing an Opinion Editorial on this issue? ➡️ Learn How to Write an Op-Ed: bit.ly/OpEd-Basics

I’m so grateful how many of our #ParkChat family members are making the effort to make a difference. Thanks everyone.

Let’s start thanking @ocparkbuilder.bsky.social for her thoughtfulness in creating tonight’s #ParkChat So well done!

#ParkChat Q4: House Joint Reso 140 unraveled Boundary Waters protections allowing polluting mining to harm these pristine waters. Would you (or have you) ever written your federal rep or Senator? What was your public land cause? ➡️ Learn More: bit.ly/Federal-Reps ➡️ Learn More: bit.ly/US-Senators

#ParkChat Q2. The Dept. of Govt Efficiency (DOGE) initiated massive layoffs across many sectors, including public lands. Do you know federal park & public land employees (both permanent & seasonal) that were impacted by DOGE layoffs? How have they managed? ➡️ Learn more: bit.ly/PublicLand-Employees

#ParkChat Q3: The Congressional Review Act (CRA) allows Congress to repeal agency regs quickly. Grand Staircase-Escalante NM is targeted for the CRA to undo its habitat plan. This is precedent setting. Is there a NM you love/want to visit that's under attack? ➡️ Learn More: bit.ly/Grand-Staircase

A1. Oh, there's so much I can say....but holy cow, that one in Utah is supposed to be 64 SQUARE MILES. I am part of a local effort to prevent them from being built in my area. Our local governments are not very well informed, and we are out to change that.

Q1 #ParkChat I view the rush to build new data centers as threats to our public land on so many levels. How do you view them and their rapid proliferation? Add a little detail please.

#ParkChat is looking for guest hosts for 6/10 and 6/17. It’s fun and we’ll help you get ready for the chat as much as we need to. Reach out to me or @naturetechfam.bsky.social for more details.

Welcome to a special “Current Public Land Threats” edition of #ParkChat featuring @ocparkbuilder.bsky.social. This is an important topic and I’m confident we’ll all learn a lot this evening. As you sign in please let us know where you are participating from tonight.

Almost time for #ParkChat 🤩 Starting at 6pm Pacific, in about 10 minutes! Put your frustrations over threats to our #PublicLands into words as we learn about & discuss public land threats. Gain hope & get ideas on how to take action with guest host @ocparkbuilder.bsky.social 🦉

@hawaiipacificparks.bsky.social Would you be available to host #ParkChat next month? We have an opening either 6/10 and 6/17. Thanks.

One hour and counting!! Who wants to talk about the threats our public lands face?? #ParkChat
