I'm interested to see what kinds of work we will actually be doing this semester in order to use all of these resources, it will be fun to leave the "confines" of Canvas every once in awhile.

We had been directed after landing in the British consul in Thailand to head directly inland, as far as we could, travelling north. We have earnestly endeavored to go as north as the land would permit us, but at last we have reached what seems to be an impassable ravine with a roaring river below. It will likely take some time to find a suitable location to cross this treacherous cliff, and our native guides seem increasingly uncomfortable the deeper we have gone into the heart of the jungle. Despite the presence of several nearby villages, the natives insisted that we should not linger for long in our temporary encampment. August 9, 1878 Despit...
