Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving week-end came and went; (personally I need to work off a few calories and maybe some field work is just the ticket). We resumed classes today (Monday Nov. 29); the last thing that I heard from students as we said our farewells last Tuesday was that some students just didn't want to stop the field work as I had originally scheduled; they just wanted to work through to the end of the semester; one group was aiming at DEC 4 (Saturday) and another group was looking at DEC 8 (University holiday); honestly this was very unexpected but if they can work through the winter chill all the more power to them; we worked into DEC last year so it can't hurt to keep going; let's see what tomorrow will bring.
