Couldn't pass up the opportunity of a picture of Kristina Neumann (below) in front of this ad for Neumann University!

The best parts about the Philly airport: Dunkin' Donuts, MacDonald's bacon, egg, and cheese biscuit, and chairs without arms that facilitated sleeping!

She looked so perky in the previous photo! Here's Kristina (above) getting some good R & R.

Liz and Caleb are gonners, but Alex looks very perky! He must have slept better on the 12 hour flight from Tel Aviv.

On Thursday evening, after seeing Rachel off to the airport, the "remnant" had dinner together at En Gev's Fish Restaurant. We arrived in time to watch the sunset.

Sunset watching was a fav activity in the evenings throughout the season. Here are Glenn and John poised to get the best photo on our last evening:

Some people held hands as they watched their final sunset over the Sea of Galilee:

A good time was had by all ...

Andrea and Cameron Heiliger were delighted to be back for a FULL season this time. Andrea was the illustrator and Cameron moved LOTS of rocks in 4 weeks.

Darryl Schmidt & John Klinkhammer (otherwise knows as the odd couple OR the evil and good twins).

Kristina's pottery slaves, Brennan Woell and Alex Bednar. Who could resist their smiles?

Kristina Neumann, Assistant Director and Coordinator of Small Finds, had a LONG, exhausting week. She actually fell asleep on Jim Rogers' shoulder after dinner!

Veteran digger Glenn Borchers: In a class by himself!

Carl Roessler, conservator-in-training and re-builder of the walls, and Caleb Meyer, rock mover and prime wheelbarrow-er.

Jim Jim (not to be confused with Jim R) Appelbaum and daughter Hannah, budding illustrator

Dr. Rhoda Schuler's "shopping partners" in Jerusalem: Hannah Appelbaum (again), Anna Fink, and Liz Horgan

"Lutheran pairadocs" (get it?) Mark and Rhoda Schuler
