Confused?

Question: How is it that I can post an entry on Monday (see the date of my last posting) that talks about things that didn't happen until the following Thursday?

Answer: I'm precognitive.

Okay, well, no, not really. But wouldn't it be cool if I were!

So here is what is really going on.

Some of these entries are composed over a span of several nights. I'll write a few paragraphs each night, then save what I have, thus far, as a 'draft.' When it is all finished, I 'publish' the full entry.

However, what appears to be happening is that the date that is assigned to that entry is the date on which I started writing it, not the date I finished the writing.

Hope that clears up any confusion you might have experienced.

And since I'm here now, might as well add a small Field School update...

We all spent Friday morning in the lab again. Storm fronts were passing through so we opted not to go out to the field. Ended up calling it an early day and went home at noon.

And a change to next week's agenda. I won't be starting a new unit right away after all. Maybe not at all in fact. Time constraints are becoming a concern as we only have 2 weeks left to finish this project and have much yet to do with the existing units.

So, instead of a new unit, I'll be going to help at the excavation across the northern end of the embankment. That part of the enclosure was once under cultivation. The goal there is to establish where the ditch and embankment were originally located so that we can better plot the full circumference of the enclosure.
