Today was up and at em at the dig site. A lot of boulders and dirt moved. Seems like the same old story. I'm not as exhausted as I was last week, but tonight I am as ready for bed as I ever have been. Perhaps it is because the heat seems to be going up. I am preferring being inside with a bit of AC than outside. Also, there wasn't much wind.
Today I did some laundry in the sea. This was my first time. It seemed to work good, and clothes dried fast, Lots of people do it everyday.
Tonight there was a lecture from an Israeli, who must teach at the U of Haifa. He spoke about Roman engineering. Apparently, when there was no war to fight, the legions with their engineers were kept busy building. Hence the theaters, aquaducts, roadways, and arches. It was quite facinating. I would like to see more of the country, but the focus is on the dig. Sometimes we find walls, and mosaics, an then there's lots of pottery to wash at the end of the day, just before devotions and supper.
Well, that's it for today. Read some other blogs to find out more, if so interested. D.S.
