New Photos and stuff

Hey gang I just put up new photos on photobucket

also for any of you googlers that are interested in what I'm going to be doing for the next few weeks. I'm heading out tomorrow to the Western Antarctic Ice Sheet Divide (WAIS) to help set up the summer camp. They're drilling ice cores there for climatological research. It's a pretty big camp once we get it up and running although going a few weeks without a shower doesn't really sound all that pleasant to me, I can't wait to get out onto the continent itself. It'll be just a bit colder -20ish F vs here where it's up to 23 today HEAT WAVE!!! I'm not even wearing a jacket.
