Hey folks, I am Joe Trudeau. A few days ago Luke phoned me to offer me a position as Crew Leader for the upcoming field work. I accepted, graciously, and I am very excited to be involved in this project. Over the last ten years I have been a part of many meaningful and rewarding ecological research projects, and I am honored by the opportunity to work in this wild place with a new crew and new, intriguing goals and challenges. I believe we in the environmental sciences are blessed with experiences most will never have. I am thankful for these times, even with the catclaw scars, spider bites, calloused skin, and socks painfully choked with Brome seeds.
I live a few miles south of Prescott, Arizona in a cabin that is of comparable size to the oven Luke will use to dry our biomass samples. I love food, music, knowledge and soul-building. Plants have spoken to me. I enjoy administering first aid in traumatic situations. I'm not mad anymore that I'm going to get old someday. Like our lab-masters, I drink Tecate, climb big rocks, and eat food often. I can also get by without these things. One thing I can not get by without is our beautiful Earth.
