warm air and cold water

ooops, I forgot to show you all photos of Ari's dessert-fest:

Jealous??

Well, it's been warming up at the Andrews lately. It hasn't rained in a while, and the sun has been out every day! It's been very nice to have sun in my life again. But, it is supposed to rain again soon...

I have been tooting along with my project. I really like being outside, and seeing how the plants progress over the days. I helped the bird crew with their insect pulse today, and I will be doing that again tomorrow. It's kind of annoying to have to go to the same sites 3 days in a row, but one the other hand, it's nice to know exactly where all of my study plants are, so I have a system when I get to each site. I can "inspect" a site in anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes.

I got sooo hot today because I was wearing my rain pants because I still have to sew up the hole in the crotch of my pants (note to self...), and it was sunny and warm. So, when I got back from working in the woods, I went swimming in the reservoir with April. It was pretty cold, but also very refreshing. We sunned ourselves on some rocks after we were done. It was lovely.

I went carb-crazy today and made a baguette and tortillas.

Ari went home last weekend, and brought back 6 (yes 6) different kinds of honey. So we had a honey smelling and tasting session. DELICIOUS.

Going camping this weekend with Ari, not sure where yet. I'll be sure to take photos and tell you all about it.
