My first post!

Wow! That was easy; I've created a blog. Now I need to learn how to use the digital camera, so I can upload photos when I travel. Our first trip of 2008 is to Belize, so I'm doing some reading. I just finished Jaguar: One Man's Struggle to Establish the World's First Jaguar Preserve, by Alan Rabinowitz. Fresh out of grad school with a PhD in wildlife ecology in the early '80's, he started collecting data on the jaguars of the Cockscomb Basin in southern Belize. His two year stay there was full of adventure, and the book is hard to put down.
