Out Here in the Field

Monday was a very exciting day at work because...we actually got to go do work in the field! Unfortunately, Isthmia doesn't have any dig permits this year, so we unfortunately didn't get to do any excavating. But we did get to go out and catalog and draw old pieces of recycled architecture so that Jon can study them more closely. It was pretty neat to kick around and see the different pieces of architecture and try to figure out where they may have come from and what they may have been used for. We even found a few that matched each other, which was kind of exciting. Even though it was super hot out, I appreciated the chance to get out and do a little bit of fieldwork.

Brittany even found a tiny puppy friend who hung out with us for a little while. She wanted to take her home to the States, but Jon turned that down pretty quickly. We were all hot and cranky after work, so Jon took us to the beach and we cooled off in the sea. It felt incredible. For dinner, we went to this little food stand just down the road from the hotel and got souvlaki, which is basically like delicious Greek shish kabobs.
