slow month for REU

After the technical problems with the boat and having to switch up the schedule I was unable to make it back out to do the monthly Lake Sampling which I look forward to. Lake Sutherland is so beautiful this time of year with the snow capped mountains and singing birds it is really a relaxing job except for the very cold water I have to put my hands into. It isn't so bad after about the third time because your hands go numb but nothing the heater in the truck fix. Very rarely is the lake choppy it usually looks like glass except for the occasional fish jumping. Because of the cold we are usually the only ones out there at 8am which makes it that much better. Hopefully next post I will have something a little bit more interesting to share.
