setting a dig like this and doing it right is important. I am not trying to weed out anybody so I'm taking two kind of local AB members up to scope it out and get it set. Rick, Badger & I are going up...
thx

This is gonna be so GREAT!!!!

A long camping weekend!

A huge mess tent set up with three hot meals a day!

Dozens of privies opened up to just the start of the use layer!

Town dump with the cap gently scraped off! One section down to the '30's era for the milk and soda guys! The other down to the 1880's for the rest!

And the lottery system for digging spots is well thought out, too!

Please put me down for two (2) queens and a private bath. Non-smoking.

(tongue firmly planted in cheek)
I'll have what David's having, but without the meals.... I don't eat when I'm digging![;)]

You have to eat when your digging,it keeps your strength up. You never know what you will encounter in those crap holes!

Ok but seriously any updates to this? Is it still even going to happen? Its gone all hush hush from what I can see. I would like to know an approximate week or weekend if possible. Im in school, have a busy schedule and would like to formulate it so that I can move some dirt with you guys. Please let me know if you can.
