A pleasant morning this morning -- I had to come home to work on some other tasks, but Dr. P. and the students continued plying their way through the limestone debris comprising feature 10 in two units. Ben, Crystal, and Amanda are working below with their self-provided "screening tent."
In other areas, Nick and Macie continued to work on their troweling skills -- cleaning up the base of an excavation level for a final photograph.
More evidence of prehistoric occupants of the area -- this time in the form of two tips (distals) of projectile points. Without the midsection and shaft of the points, they are difficult to identify as to age.
From home, I was keeping an eye on the weather radar, and managed to make it over to the site in time for a quick loadup of equipment before a line of showers and (small) storms arrived around 11 am. We retired to our field house for an early lunch, and a couple of hours of impromptu lectures on Bledsoe's Station and historic artifacts from the vicinity.
By about 2 pm, it was down to a tiny drizzle, so we went back out to the site to retrieve shovels and wheelbarrows, and to make sure our plastic held up.
Everything was in good shape, so we closed up early for the day. The dogprints in the cement of the bridge showed up nicely on the way out.
