Phase II
Woo Hoo! I get to do a phase II. Well I actually started today. It's almost like being a real archaeologist!
When people think of archaeology they usually either think of Indiana Jones (which is so wrong I don't really know where to start) or they think of the kind of archaeology featured in National Geographic or on Discovery. Rarely do I actually get to do that kind of archaeology -- the kind with square holes (units) outlined by string on nails. In fact, I haven't dug a unit for over a year, and then it was helping out another office, not one of our own projects. But today I got to open a unit, in Florida, on an actual New Orleans office project. Yeah! Here's hoping we find something cool.
Also, I made soup and got to take it for lunch today. That made me happy and was the best lunch of anyone's in the field.
