Boreholes

Started my new research with my new PI Rob Harris this week.  We went out to a borehole near Lebanon to take measurements of electrical resistivity in the 200 meter deep hole which can be converted to temperature measurements.  The procedure isLebanon_borehole_31307_004
prettty easy and simply involves slowly lowering a sensor from a spool into a large pipe hole that runs vertically into the ground while a computer records measurements taken.   It was a beautiful day and the sun was out keeping it warm.  A cat from the nearby farm also paid us a visit.  Rob is a great guy and we are already getting along great and I feel more comfortable talking with him than I currently do with Anne.
