Yeah!!! Hope it turns into something cool.
Are you familiar with the work of the children's book author/illustrator Holling C. Holling. This sounds like totally a book like one of his!
Sorry, I tried to post a link, but just google him at Amazon.
Wow, what a cool gig! Good luck it sounds really fascinating!
PS, where are the 'Channelled Scablands' ??? I know you want to travel but...
And......?
But . . . they ask for all that and the compensation is NO PAY?
Sounds like MY job! Just kidding.
