Good news! We found a midieval skeleton! Unfortunately, it's a secondary burial, meaning that the bones have been moved from their original site, but they're the most complete bones we've found yet. Most of the day yesterday and all day today was spent on excavation and removal of these bones, and we hope to finish it up on Tuesday (Monday is a holiday of some sort, so we're not working).
I spent all day today picking, shoving, and scraping, and I'm exhausted. On Tuesday I'll have my turn with the bones.
Tomorrow I'm going to Siena for the weekend with a couple of other people. I'm looking forward to spending a few days with only two others instead of 22 others!
'Til Tuesday,
MB
Why are skeletons so calm ?
ReplyDeleteBecause nothing gets under their skin !
Why don’t skeletons play music in church ?
They have no organs !
Congrats on your find!!!
Hi MB, Jeanne's pretty funny. My congratulations too.
ReplyDeleteI know you're excited about the find. I know I'm late with this comment but I didn't even open the computer since one day last week.
By the way, I sent a package to your house for Jess on Aug. 11 via Parcel Post. Hopefully it'll arrive safely and on time. The month has certainly gone by quickly. Will your whole group be leaving at the same time? Enjoy the time you have left and travel safely. Love, M
Hi mom and Jeanne,
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you'll see this, so I'll make it short.
Very funny, Jeanne, and no, Mom, we don't all leave at the same time on Saturday.
I'll arrive in SFO at about 4:00 on Saturday afternoon, so I'll try to call both of you on Sunday.
Looking forward to coming home!
