Hi Ms. Herrmann!

How's your trip going? What's your most interesting experience so far? It's getting really warm here in State College...an early spring! =]

We miss you!! Alicia and Julia

Hi Alicia and Julia,Great hearing from you. I've heard the temperatures in State College are warm right now. I wonder if we'll get a huge snowstorm in March. Sometimes when we have a mild January and February we get hit hard in March and even April. We shall see!
It's hard to pick one experience as the most interesting. It's all been fascinating, but I'm especially enjoying the opportunity to observe polar research first hand. Next week I'll have the chance to go out in the field with some scientists other than the ones on Dr. Amsler's team. Seeing all of the different research projects and the dedication of the people here is truly awe inspiring.
Keep in touch!
