CJ does nature, first edition.

Today, ladies and gentleman's, your fabulous CJ went treking through nature. No, don't have a heart attack. It was a scheduled trip with my class. I don't have very many pics, as the camera on my phone doesn't do well in nature either.


In this pic, we find out that the boardwalk crossing the university's man-made lake has alligators and snakes. For some reason, they actually thought I would follow them out there after seeing that.


This is a neat little trench dug out by Dr. Ryder. Standing close to the camera are two students I don't know. Beyond them, you see Dr. Miriam Fearn (biogeography) and Dr. Roy Ryder (soils).


Carpool? What carpool? We're Geographers, not environmental activists.


Memorial for Dr. Kippy Fearn


Fallen tree, or nature's way of telling you to take a break?

I think I pretty much would have said, "Well, that's me done then. See y'all on the other side!" LOL

Very brave of you to venture out into nature. :)

Yeah, I only went so far out, but stopped before we got over the water.

LOL.

Fun pics! Looks like the nature exposure wasn't too terrible. :D

I laugh at your puny American snakes and alligators. We have 9 out of 10 of the worlds most venomous snakes, and Estuarine Crocodiles that routinely exceed 20 feet...
