Hi Cathy,

It's neat to see you doing the same type of ITEX work as the folks in the lab next to us here in Barrow. I got to help sort plants and had a blast doing it. It's great that Arctic science spreads out across the northern regions. I wonder if Missy is doing the same thing?

Keep up the good work, Frank

Take care,
Cathy
