Equipment is ordered and on the way! It should be here early next week!
I leave for Kenya on the 3rd and I am so excited to be able to tell you guys that Rahab Kinyanjui, a Kenyan paleobotanist is on board for the work this season! We have been working on refining the protocol for the experimental work and I heard there is network in most of the region now, so we will be able to post lots of updates and pictures throughout the season!
