I hope that you are spending some time this summer learning and reading - I have been! My days have been spent learning about the forest, river, and ancient history! I had the opportunity to attend an institute in which we studied everything from forest management to fire to the lumber industry. I also spent some time studying the San Joaquin River and learning about the effort to reintroduce the Chinook salmon. I traveled to the Los Angeles region and viewed some amazing artifacts that date back 3,000 years - the stuff that we study in sixth grade! This next year, I will be working to tie all that we do to the central theme of "Mountains to Rivers." How in the world does NASA tie to this? You'll soon find out!
