-Assessment of oyster survival and growth at Westcott Shellfish. This assessment is our fall time point. We will assess again in the spring.  
+Today Grace and I did an assessment of oyster survival and growth at Westcott Shellfish. This assessment is our fall time point. We will assess again in the spring.  
 
 # Overview 
 
-We outplanted oysters at Westcott this past summer (June) after conducting sub-lethal stress hardening treatments (daily or weekly exposure to elevated temperatures; Efforts B and D). We assessed growth and survival in September and again today.

+We are now going to work on the following steps:  
 
 - Measure oyster size from images 
 - Count oysters in each cage for survival 
 - Run models to predict volume from length and width measurements from subset of manually measured oysters 
 - Analyze growth as percent growth from intial time point 
 
-We will assess outplants again in the spring, when the farm typically sees some inital mortality.
