Earthwatch Expedition: Marine Mammals of Monterey California Team 3 Aug 30-Sept 8 2006

The mission of this expedition is to get to know the sea otters and bottlenose dolphins of central California's coast. As a middle school science teacher, I will join scientists in the field to participate in a population study of marine mammals. This expedition experience is funded by the Earthwatch Institute through grants from Wells Fargo Bank and the National Geographic Education Foundation. I will keep in contact with my students in Phx, AZ to share the experience.

I love taking my family on trips that are educational, adventurous, but most of all fun! Last year the four of us went to Karchner Caverns and had a great time. In years past Michelle and I have gone on scuba trips including a great trip to Keylargo Florida where we went diving each day in the warm waters. This year is so exciting as we anticipate our adventure to Baja Mexico to pet the Grey Whales that migrate there for just a short time to give birth to their young.

We will be residing in a lovely victorian home in Pacific Grove. It was built in 1893 and originally owned by Margaret McCormick. Downstairs there is a large sitting room with fireplace, an office for data entry and internet use, a dining room, large kitchen, pantry, one bedroom and one bathroom. Upstairs there is an additional bathroom and four more bedrooms. We also have a nice large common area for team meetings and there is also a television. Out back we have a small yard, deck, gas fire pit and a hot tub.
