Journal Entry
Preparing to work with seals…
…is no quick and easy task! So, what have we been up to over the past couple of days?
We've been busy unpacking, setting up the lab, packing for our daily excursions and taking classes – safety first.
Since a pictures worth a thousand words, I thought I’d let the photos do the talking. And don’t miss the video at the end of this journal to see the scurry of the pace around here.
Bruce Bulkfigure and Molly Minifig have been very helpful setting up the lab.
The team unloaded two very large supply boxes. Greg, Amy and Roxanne are opening the first container.
We also had to pick up two truckloads of gear.
Snowmobile training. Looks like Bruce Bulkfigure and Molly Minifig are ready!
Prepping to work with the seals. Here I am preparing gauze packs.
Tightening the bolts on our tripod. This will be used to weigh the seal, so it needs to work properly.
Shopping for our daily field lunches at the ‘food pull’. They have an entire warehouse full of food. This was so much fun shopping!
What don’t you see in my basket? No Snickers®. Oh no! How will I ever make it through the season without my Snickers®?

Hope to work with seals soon.
