Big Sur 2010 This was the second field trip I went on with Rick Nolthenius to the Big Sur site. I went down on a Thursday night by myself figuring I would get in an extra night of imaging. Once I got there I got the tent set up and then the flies descended. There were so many that I had to take refuge in my tent for the day. Thank goodness I brought a good long book to keep me busy. Here is a shot of Fred. |

Sur 2010 Some of the students. A lot of the students take Rick's classes thinking it will be a no-effort way to get their science requirements done. Rick's classes are all challenging and there's always a test at the end of these field trips. |
