Just thought I would post a couple pics I have taken. Haven't had a lot of time yet to take pics as I have been busy, especially since I was delayed due to car trouble and didn't get to set my camp up ahead of class, and missed the tour.

Just a couple to get things started.

It was a bit cold this morning after some rain last night, enough so that Paul gave Kelly instructions on how to fire up the rocket mass heater

Awesome pics Kelly, gotta love Cass hugging the tree. He looks soooo happy. With good reason, trees are great friends.
