It is my first real day here in Wasco and I am oh so tired. Yesterday I called my field supervisor and he told me to meet him in Walla Walla at 9 am. This means I have to get up at 5 am (you all know that's my bedtime not wake up time) so I have time to shower, eat and fill up on gas. When I get there proptly at 9 my supervisor is in a meeting and has no idea why I am there. Long story short my field supervisor was in the field when I called and thought I was someone else so there was no reason for me to be there. However, I did get to talk to them a little and they gave me a map of the turbines I will be working at and he told me a little more of the project. Basically West Inc. performed an environmental evaluation of the area a few years ago, the turbines were built and now I will be performing an environmental impact study of the area. Not too complicated but necessary. Anyway, I have a picture of the hotel I am currently staying in and one of the building next door but for some reason I can't upload them right now. I will find out what the building is and get a few more pictures of the town, that can be walked in 5 minutes, later but right now I need to take a nap. Yes Gramma I am somewhat near the Falls, aproximately 30-45 mins. east. I am about 15 mins. from the Columbian River, which I incidentally saw a Bald Eagle on today. If that last sentence didn't make a lot of sense please excuse me as I nap.
