My Summer Job....

Journal Entry: Mon Jun 19, 2006, 8:29 AM
...Is absolutely incredible. I've gone with my school's geology department to the caribbean island of Dominica to study the dormant volcanoes there. We are using some precise GPS recievers to try and catch possible signs of the increasing activity.

The place is quite beautiful, Dominica is the least exploited of the caribbean islands and retains much of its natural beauty. The food is also really good, particularly the local produce. I used to hate pineapple in the states, but it tastes so incredibly good over here.

I expected the weather to be unbearable, and when we had a layover in San Juan I thought I was right, but Dominica is actually pretty nice, the temps only get up to around 87 as opposed to the low 90's back home and the mornings and evenings are quite cool. It's the rainy season so the sky is sometimes overcast during the hottest parts of the day as well.

I've got a couple pictures up already (check my scraps as well) and hopefully I'll post some more during my free time here. It's been raining a lot lately leaving us not a whole lot to do.

I've been here for 2 weeks already and have another 2 weeks before I go back to Arkansas to process the data we collected.

Not at the moment. Really those pictured are about all I've made (except for a couple practice ones), so I don't really have much of a stock built up. Although I have considered teaming up with *Zikes and *spiralkitty and having a booth at a ren fest or crafts fair

Oh, and thank you very much for the compliment and Devwatch, they are much appreciated.

Actually it comes from the mathematician Mobius who did work with one-sided objects in the mid 1800's. My Ball bears a striking resemblance to the most popular of these objects which is called a Moebius Strip.
