Hi everyone,  I hope you like this photo - actually I took it from the net - it's a primary forest.  Notice the subtle mist and the canopy that the forest creates!

Hey, I created a vocabulary list for us - not sure how to upload the Word doc though... Anyone know how to do this?  Help!  

Meantime, I guess I will just try to copy and paste it here!  OK, the table didn't come out, but here is a list of words I would like you guys to know - please try to review these words for tomorrow.
