Back to the Field

I'M BACK!!

In the field, that is...

I'm now in Lemmon SD, working on a small testing project at Shadehill Reservoir. We're testing 4 sites here over the course of a week (and maybe another day or two...). Should get in some good cross-training over the 1+ week (heavy duty sweating, hard physical labor, etc.).

Lemmon is known for its infamous "Petrified Wood Park." Some pretty interesting structures. Depending on what the meaning of "pretty" is... According to the local story, a local businessman or rancher (I forget, I'm getting old you know) hired a bunch of local people during the 1930s as a way to boost the economy.

Here are a few pics of the Petrified Wood Park. It is a wonder to behold...something that pictures and words don't do justice to.

Until next time,
MJ
