How exciting -- you've had a productive few months over there! I hope there will be some rain soon for the little froggies.

Having you over there is a dream come true for ME! I love reading about and seeing pictures of what you're doing. Here's a funny frog story from home for you: with all the flooding rains at Edisto, the spadefoot toads have been going nuts. My brother met a tourist lady from up north at the beach, and she told him she could hardly sleep at night because the ducks were quacking so loudly! He told her, "down here we call 'em 'frawgs'".

Frogs and fynbos -- two of my favorite things! And seeps, too, another favorite thing. I remember seeing pretty sundews in the seeps at Table Mountain and Betty's Bay. I hope we can come visit sometime while you are there. I'm so excited for you to be doing this!
