proof
In living fujifilm color --proof that I am actually here, and not just in a basement somewhere lying about the heat. Ok I could have pulled these from random site, but I didn't.
Sorry I haven't bothered to figure out posting images directly here. Anyway, the one picture is from off the coast the second (of a total of two) days we went to the beach. We hired a boat and and got to look at some coral reefs, which was fantastic even though there was only one snorkle for five people.
Let me take this moment to interject a stastic from the book I just finished, Heat, by George Monbiot (read it now), which states that with a two degree rise in global temperature, 97% of coral reefs will die out. A lot of other very bad things will happen as well. His conclusion is that we need a 90% reduction in global carbon emmissions in order to prevent that two degree rise.
The second picture is a bunch of neighborhood kids hanging on a branch by the river.

Great photos - especially the kids.
loved the photos too! also glad to hear you're liking Heat...well liking might not be the right word, being alarmed by or riled up maybe? i need to read it again to get me fired up and ready for action.
