Two more animals to add to my list! I went down to Manitoulin yesterday and I saw a baby bear and a deer. That makes 13 so far, and my mom has yet to see one. For those of you who missed it, way back in April I talked about a contest my mom and I have each summer to see who can spot the most "wild" animals (squirrels and the like don't count). There's no prize for the winner, except bragging rights (dammit!). In my last post I gave a list of all the animals I've seen to date, not counting the bear and deer I saw yesterday.

It is so quiet up here at work lately. The field season started last week, so nearly half the floor is gone for the summer. In a way that's good, because I don't have 50 million things to do that are all due at the same time, but in a way it's bad, because it means I can run out of stuff to do very easily. I guess time will tell.
