Introductory Blog-August 30, 2014
My name is Katelyn Gaines, I am a business management major at CU Denver, and am a full time student. I am employed at Carrabbas Italian grill in Westminster, Co. I am 20 years old and have 4 brothers. My hobbies would include watching movies and shopping. 
For my semester blog entries i have selected my backyard as my observation area. I selected my backyard because i have a lot going on in my backyard. My house backs right up to a large ditch bank, this includes a river, train tracks, large field area, and lots of trees and greenery. Also on the right of our house is a wide open park.  It seems like the ideal spot to me because there is so much nature happening in my own backyard that i can easily go and observe whenever i would like. 
Below is a picture of my backyard from about a year ago. In the picture you mainly see the park area next to my house, and the ditch bank that i had talked about is behind that.
