Desert Protective Council Transitions
June 18th, 2009 Posted by Larry Hogue in DPC News
After a lot of soul-searching, I’ve decided to leave my consulting post with the Desert Protective Council in order to spend more time with my family, more time on my own writing, and more time in places like this –>
It’s been a great 2-1/2 years with DPC. I’ve enjoyed the work I’ve done on this blog, and all the connections I’ve made through it and through our DesertBlog twitter account (@DesertBlog). I may post here very occasionally as my time and blog space permits.
If you’d like to follow my future writing endeavors, I have a site on FreeWebs. It’s pretty out of date right now, but I should be updating it soon. I also post occasionally on The Clade, and you can follow me on Twitter: @LarryHogue. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll join the 21st century and get my own blog.
For those of you concerned about what will happen to DesertBlog, El Paisano, and DPC’s other communications efforts — not to worry, we’re handing these tasks over to the very capable Chris Clarke. Chris has posted here before, and you may have seen his Coyote Crossing site through frequent links from here, or his essay in our most recent Ed Bulletin. Chris has a wealth of writing, editing, photography, and social media experience that make him perfect for taking DPC to the next level. I’m excited to see what he’ll bring to the organization.
If you’re also excited about these developments, and want to support DPC in advancing its message of conservation for our desert landscapes, I hope you’ll take a moment to donate right now. You can do so quickly and easily with a credit card through the very secure, Guidestar-sponsored Network for Good site, or with an old-fashioned check using this printable form.
Hoping we’ll meet up again down the trail,
–Larry Hogue

Those are some formidable desert boots I’m going to have to fill. Thanks for all the important work, Larry.
