My favorite science experience was the quiet of the maple forest in West Virginia as I collected leaf litter samples in decomposition bags to return to the laboratory for weighing. A fun science
experience was standing in a West Virginia wetland in early spring with a thermometer to test whether the internal temperature of skunk cabbage before the buds expanded really DID hit 85°
Fahrenheit as reported in the journal Scientific American. It only hit 82°F!
