Melanie's Update

Well Greyson and I went to my HSG (internal die contrast thing) test this morning. Everything looked normal so that is good.

I got a new short term project that I will be doing for the next couple weeks here at Bonneville Dam. I will be helping some University of Maryland folk that are studying the effects of barging salmonid smolts on there hearing (temp. loss or perm. damage) and the confusiono r disorrientation that may come from that. I will probably just be disposing of bodies and taking down data since I am not experienced at disecting fish ear's. As you can imagine it is fairly delicate work. After that is over I may be heading to the East coast for a 2 week Turb 'n tag job.

Greyson's parents invited us down for a Thanksgiving cruise this year. I think they are inviting all of their immediate family so that would be fun if they all came. I will have check what the bahamas are like in November, but I know it will have to be better then a Washington November.

I think that is all the news. It was good to see the Porters and the Sharp's for Mother's day. Oh, and I almost forgot, this coming weekend that I said you were all not invited to come to my house so I can relax for a bit, I now probably have to work all weekend anyway.
