Hey folks, just a quick post this week. I wanted to post a few pictures from my plant geography class. We visited a archeological site (a giant mound of sea shells) where we could get a look at the landscape. You can see the rolling ancient sand dunes by the height of the trees. But look again! 

The tallest trees are actually in the valleys where the water and soil settles. I thought that was neat. Not exactly rocket science but you don't tend to notice these things until somebody points it out (such as one of our profs is doing this the picture). And the guarani indians that live there were selling pretty baskets.  

I also learned this week that bug repellant, an umbrella,  and a rain jacket do very little good when left on the bus...

but honestly the biggest news of the week is that kyle bought a dEEp frEEzer for our house in raleigh!!! yay!  mmm...freezer jam.
