Charlie Hoffman

I for one, respect this man so much. Charlie is just an all around great mentor. One thing that he will do is call me out, if I'm doing something dangerous, mean, evil, and or mischievous. Haha, good old Charlie. One time, Allie was throwing man roots at me, and take note, these man roots are quite large in fact, and as she was throwing them at me, I was deflecting them with my spade. Then all of a sudden, Charlie comes out of nowhere, yelling at me, telling me to stop swinging my shovel above my head like a mad man. Haha, then I got chastized a little, and of course I called him a buzz kill, but in the end, he is right. I shouldn't be swinging shovels above my head if I want to avoid lawsuit. But beside the point, Charlie has taught me so much in terms of habitat restoration. He taught me proper technique, filled my head will all sorts of plant knowledge, and at the same time, urged me to become a better open minded person by putting me in environments that I was not accustomed to. Good o'le Charlie!
