We're back from vacation!

Sorry for the incredibly long period between posts! Taylor and I have been gone for the past two weeks on a wonderful trip all over the south east. The highlight of the trip?

We went caving in Georgia! Last year I got a $1000 grant from the explorer's club to learn about human impact on cave ecosystems. This was our first time trying out our vertical gear as we prepare for our big trip later this winter.



It was sad being away from the garden for so long, but Dennis and Philip took care of everything while we were gone. All was well upon our return!

Camping out

So last night was a wonderful cool evening. I got out of class at 10 pm, and Taylor decided that we should camp out in the backyard next to the rabbits. We've been curious as to what sorts of critters might visit in the night.

We chose the bigger of our two tents because this one has a screen door that we could use to peer through at the bunnies.

From what we could tell, there weren't very many critters visiting throughout the night, except for some rain drops. I think the tent will stay up a few more days, so perhaps we'll try it again.
