Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: Here is a set of core collected by Josie Nevitt in Earthquake. They will be here for logging and processing then they will migrate back to Menlo Park and probably eventually go to O'Brien. Maybe we can give them a FA ID if that's OK. They are drill cores taken in the Napa Valley for post Napa Valley Earthquake studies.

lat/lons were derived from a Dual SkyPro GPS (WAAS) receiver and MotionX (cellphone app)
