Another day of digging!  We did not find anything too interesting.  I finished the balk I was working on yesterday and started to work on another.  In archaeology it is very important to make sure you dig on level a surface which is difficult when using a pick axe and huge hoe, but I think I am finally getting it down. 

Now we have the afternoon for relaxation until 5:30 when we have a lecture about Ashkelon, another dig in the area.
