July 28th, 2017: Day 17

This morning has mainly consisted of making our outline and trying to find Roger. He isn't a quick man but he hides pretty well. We got some notes about it and we've been trying to edit it to make it as wonderful as possible. Paige is leaving at 3 and I'm not sure what I'm doing when she leaves. Maybe cry? I'll post about it later. We plan to start thinking about the final presentation and putting images together for slides. I also want to copy our Selden Map presentation and then cut out the unnecessary slides, the ones that don't show too much information. Paige has been on the phone with her mom, Molly so I'm trying to make friends. I think it's going well. The rest of the day was mainly picking images for our final presentation and editing our outline after receiving more feedback.

July 25th, 2017: Day 14

I have nothing to report about the morning meeting. We got new data from Roger and we spent a lot of the time just making image cubes. We also visited the 3D printer to make a part that Peter and Ashley needed while our files were loading. Today has mainly consisted of renaming things and making image cubes and asking David Lewis for help. Thank goodness for David Lewis. We haven't created any new images so unfortunately nothing exciting to post in the blog today..

August 10th, 2017: Day 26

During the morning meeting we discussed the final presentations and what some people did yesterday. After the meeting we talked to Dave about a few things we wanted to add. I think Paige and I are just about done with the presentation but I'm not 100% sure about that. Personally, I think it's a pretty good presentation. We got an email from Robert/Bob complimenting us on our blogs, I'm pretty thrilled to know that he took the time to see what we're up to. In his email he also mentioned a few things about different maps at the Bodleian. I'm not sure what they are but he attached them to the email so I might as well take a look at them. I spent the better part of my day working with Roger's data. It's not going into the presentation but the results are still kind of neat. I keep forgetting to save them as JPEGs but today was the day that I actually did.
