more pictures

Soooo here it is! The Downing Box. I will be using this lovely little plexi-glass suitcase to collect my samples. I know I've explained to a lot of people what it was, but here it is, in the flesh! It turned out perfect, I am so happy, I just keep staring at it.


I'm picking out my lakes next week, and should start sampling the week after that. I finally feel like I'm doing my own thing, and it's awesome.


After the yellow iris work today I went fishing with my dad and while I caught a bunch of aquatic plants (ironic, i know) he caught this killer pike. The tackle got caught up a little bit around the mouth. That kind of thing makes me a little uncomfortable with fishing, but my dad got it unwrapped okay. I love pike, they are some serious carnivores (they'll snap baby ducks right off the surface) and they look so freaking prehistoric.


Anyway, took this one on the way back to camp
