Bahamas Caves: Deep Dark Secrets

I found this on national geographic and thought it was incredible! It looks into Earth's past and its future. Read the article and be sure to look through the photo gallery... some really awesome pictures. Enjoy!

If you had 1 more week in Bimini...

Now that we have all had a few days to readjust to living on land, let's reflect back to the research projects we were working on. You all started some interesting projects while we were there. However, we all wish we could have more time to extend the work. If you did have 1 more week to extend your research project and/or to research anything you would like about the ecosystems of Bimini, what would you research? Why?

The music is annoying but this is pretty cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7E1rq7zHLc

Hey everyone,

Here's the link to pre-trip photos!

Enjoy!

Pre-trip

With pre-trip behind us, we'd like to know what you liked best about the experience. Your input is valued and impacts future programs. So let us know what you think. I'm also setting up a site to share pre-trip photos. I'll post a link once they're uploaded.

Have a great fourth of July!

All About You...

Since pre-trip is right around the corner, I thought it would be a good idea for all of us to start getting to know each other. Respond to this post by telling us what you like to do in your spare time. Do you have any hobbies or interests that you would like to share? Chances are there will be someone in the group with which you have someone in common. Also, it would help if you included a picture of yourself (you can attach by clicking on the picture above) so that people will know who to look for when they arrive on the first day of pre-trip.

Welcome!

Greetings all and welcome to the HSMB 2010 blog. We will use this site to share resources (such as videos, pictures,articles, etc.), as well as to engage in discussions while we are not physically together during the program. Please feel free to contribute what ever you think is relevant, interesting and appropriate in this space.

Looking foreword to sharing our ideas!
