GSA day three

Today was one big schmoozefest and storytelling day, and of course reposting other people's adventures is not a very polite thing to do. So I will let all of you non-existent readers fill in your own blanks. Have you combined hitchhiking with fieldwork? If not, what is the transport method you have used that is most likely to draw frowns from the front office staff..?

  1. I think I got the most frowns after I rolled a van in Alaska during grad school. (Though to the front office's credit, they asked "are you ok?" first.)

    I did hitchhike back from the wrecked van, as it was 20 miles from Nome...

  2. How many under..
    grads in the back?

  3. On a grad school fieldtrip to Nevada I decided to indulge myself with a trip to a brothel. Ignoring the fact that the school logo was on both doors...

    Worse yet, as I was backing out of the parking lot, the OTHER school vehicle drove in and caught me in the high beams. It was the professor taking a few of the students (including all the female students) on a 'wildlife tour'.
