Kristin and I are pounding "dirt" through a screen. Real cool. To save money, we're pre-grinding the samples before they are sent off to the labs for analysis. She is very tired but I got out the electric prod and am forcing her to soldier on. Above are the cow Bessie at the rancho that I like to pet and awe at her excessively wet and runny nose. An excellent wall art of Amanita muscaria. Very nicely done. We did get a photo of the fairy ring but an aerial photo would do it much better justice, here is a photo of a fairy elipse. It has been rainy here all day, but we've been working on inside stuff. ALL of the abiotic data collection is finished. Soil, Moisture, and Light. Woohoo! Now soil samples to do which are fairly time consuming. The land manager invited Kristin and I to dinner tomorrow night with his family so that should be a pretty good time. I'm curious what kind of food he will make us. His first suggestion was some kind of cream sauce with anchovies that is apparently a Canestro speciality. I'm down, but Kristin isn't such the anchovy fan. Either way, I need to keep poundin the dirt.
