Journal Entry

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone for being a part of the expedition today! It was a wonderful experience for all of us here. We had a great time hearing all of the friends, families, and all of the students! Janet and Kristin, Ronnie and Zeb run a great organization at PolarTREC!

Thank you for the PolarConnect EventThank you all for being an important part of this expedition!

Thank you to all of Dr. Natali's family. Her mother Pat was there, and I know she is enjoying keeping up with the journals. Also her husband Marc and their two sons Clancy and Ciati where able to be with us. Sorry that I didn't give your mom more of a chance to talk!

I want to thank my wife Mary for being there in the middle of her workday. It's hard to be away from home for all of us, so the support means so much.

The research teamChristian, Dr. Natali, and Elizabeth enjoyed the event.

A big thanks you to Mrs. Terich and all of her 5th grade students at Plavan School! It's so nice to have you all share and ask questions. I hope you are all enjoying the expedition, and I hope to see you all when I get back.

I really want to say thank you to my Talbert family including Mrs. Robinson, Mr. Miller, all of the sixth grade team teachers and our great bunch of 6th graders! I owe you all so much for your continued support.

It was a very good day today! I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.
