The Bus Was Late.

| No Comments
Yes, this was the highlite, or should I say the lowlite, of the day.  We finished another back-breaking day at the site, and headed out as usual for the bus, only to arrive at the pick up spot, and no bus for over half an hour.  The heat was 93 degrees F, and most people were out of water.  Let me just say it was the far from the ideal situation.  At 12 noon the sun is right above, - so no shade anywhere.

The other thing was that back at the Kibbutz, the power went off.  It was bit worrisome, because  the cafeteria was quickly warming  up.  The good news is that it came back and stayed on after about 20 minutes.

2 more days of digging are left for the Canadians, and few others.  Everyone else is staying a month.  In our new area we are not finding much yet, but will soon be down to a level where we will be able to.  I spent most of the day empty buckets into a wheel barrel, and then dumping into the "abyss" - a steep valley, that if you went down, you wouldn't be able to stop.  It's entertaining to watch some of the boulders go. 

Dr. Chambers is close to arrangements to see Jerusalem.  The plan is to travel to Tel Aviv, pay to store our luggage there, hop a transport to Jerusalem, and then back in time to catch our flight.  Looks like things are working out - thanks be to God. D.S.
