Purslane! A leggy one, gas station in Massachusetts on way to pick kid up from camp. How many global #purslane sightings could we get in one day on twitter? I’d love to see- @josejmovi any over in London? @kheyduk how about Honolulu ?

In New Haven, in August, this is keeping me smiling all the time 😎. I smile also because I am so proud of this team of scientists – the last two years have been hard. I’m so grateful that this is the crew I was lucky enough to get through it with. @josejmovi y’all we did it!
