I'm a blogger now!

I have been selected to be part of a team of professionals to study climate change at the arctic's edge! As part of my fellowship requirement from the Northrop Grumman Foundation, I will be using this blog to promote my experiences in the arctic. It is my intention to blog during my actual expedition as well as before and after the trip. I am hoping that I can also use my blog as a format for communication with my students during my trip and into the next school year. This is my first blog post... I am still trying to learn this blogging program. More later...
