Hi everybody! This is Katie. I just wanted to update you on what’s going on in the lab. First of all, Scott and Josh have already left for Utah and are readying our permits and such. Back in the lab at Burpee, however, Mindy and I have been continuing our preparation of specimens. We are working on some pieces of Homer that we collected last year and are trying to get caught up on a backlog of fossils. We both will be leaving on the 18th though; we are catching a ride with a crew from Western Illinois University. So our lab may look a little deserted, but its for a good cause! We will have a few volunteers coming in from time to time to keep things running smoothly down there, so do stop by and see what they’re up to. I will upload some pictures of our work later this week. This summer may be the busiest and most prolific the lab has ever had!

Katie
