Hi Oxbow Archaeologists,

Just a quick note to let you know that John O. and I made it out to the site yesterday afternoon for a little while. We trowelled, photographed, and drew Feature 4 – the rectangular feature. We noticed some brick fragments, square nails, and very small earthenware fragments while we were trowelling and screening (see photos). This feature is ready to start excavating!

Tomorrow (Wednesday), we’ll meet at the RB for lab work. Next Saturday, we’ll plan on excavating at the site (weather permitting).

Hope to see you at the site.

Scott
