A Day Off!

Today is Friday and it is our day off! Our P.I.s (Principal Investigators) dropped the team off in the small town of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia. The temperature is a perfect 70 degrees, which Dr. Newman was said was very uncharacteristic for this time of the year.
To get here, we had to take a ferry from the small town of LaHave, and our van just drove right onto it.

What a charming little town! Hopefully, this afternoon I will venture out and take a look around. (Note: The picture above and to the right is for Jesse. Welcome back, Jesse! The picture at the top of this post is for Leland. I hope you are researching Nova Scotia's transportation.)

This morning I attempted to communicate with my classroom but we had some technical difficulties. It was certainly nice, though, to be able to see their faces, and at least say hello.

Right now, I am at the public library accessing their WIFI, which is a little slow but much appreciated. I have posted the video clip below to show you an important aspect of our work in the field--trapping and releasing small mammals.
