It has begun! And it's crazy. So crazy, in fact, that I wrote about it in my personal blog, which you can read here.
I still have an enormous pile of work to do just from 2 paired island-mainland sites, and I'm glad I have a chance to chomp through it before I head back out for more in the near-ish future. California was in my sights for a while, but things might shift around a bit. Whatever happens, I'm still in high gear trying to get permits and tickets and transport and blah blah blah organised. I think for every 1 hour in the field, there are about 10 hours of preparation and processing to go with it!
