Had a nice time at the Flathead Lakers’ Summer Soirée fundraiser. It’s a great organization !

A crowd of about 75 people seated under a white tent. An auction is underway.

Good to know I can still get some air (even with a 50-lb pack)!

Ah when it’s time for the local field station villagers to dry out their sample coolers.

A dozen blue and white coolers spread out on the ground at FLBS.

Happy Fourth of July from @umflbs.bsky.social ! Recently we wrapped up our 125th anniversary celebration (FLBS was founded in 1899). Amazing that this institution has been advancing aquatic science and education for more than 1/2 of the history of the USA.
