Where has Dewey been?

Hello everyone!

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted to the web blog but that’s not due to lack of activity! Even though Jeff continues to protest as well push forward, it is clear we are on to something big and I think it is crucial to get to the bottom of it.

Let’s review how things have gone down over the last couple of months: Ever since the Forest Ecology team at the Cascade Forest Research Center started breaking down the surrounding forest into a ‘scientific grid’, the area known as Sunken Valley - which translates to grid section D-14 and the surrounding cells on any standard CFRC geological map - has been producing odd botanical and organic samples, strange noises and feedback whines, and is virtually impossible to access on foot.

I don’t think anyone from the CFRC has been able to penetrate that actual grid cell since we started our forest studies, but Jeff and I have been ordered on a number of occasions to try and clear a path so Arnie can, at the very least, set up his monitoring systems and it has just not been easy. Couple that with Jeff getting nailed on the back with some huge log, and a mutated fungus infecting people’s flesh back at Pacific Cascade University, and I worry sometimes that we may be in over our heads.

Rudolph, the paranormal bookstore owner, was helpful - if not a little frustrating. I’m not sure I forgive him yet for sending us to the home of a madman who tried to kill us, even if Ingevald offered some additional insight.

Speaking of ‘fungus flesh eating bacteria’ as Joyce so lovingly put it, despite Dr. Melbourne’s assurances that Linda is going to be OK I feel obligated to send her a note or some balloons or something. And speaking of Dr. Melbourne I can’t say I support her ‘lab test’, but she’s my superior and, for now, I’m going to let it go in favor of some additional research I’d like to do.

I have an interview with Stephens Logging soon - Brian Stephens is Brittney Stephens older brother and Brittney, of course, works at the CFRC as the botany specialist for the Forest Ecology Team. I am anxious to see what Brian has to offer regarding his experiences in the deep woods.
