A New Chapter--

Hello All! As many of you know, I have been picked up by a company called Saltwater Inc. to do Fishery Observing. Saltwater is contracted by NOAA- National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), fisherman, and research organizations, to provide reliable, unbiased fisheries data to promote management practices that are in the best interests of the industry, the consumer, and of course, the ecosystem that the rest is centered around. It's been recommended to me that I document my experiences in blog format. As such, I have decided to create this blog detailing for all of you my experiences as an Observer in Alaska and wherever else the job may take me. I am new to blogging, and this is my first attempt. I am still figuring out how the program works etc. so please bear with me. I leave for Seattle on 3-April for a 3 week training course sponsored by NMFS. My next post will be around that time, I'll keep you updated! If you are reading this via email, please click the link to my blog for a more graphically pleasing version.
