First day at the Glunk

April 28th,2014
              It is a nice breezy day, about 60 degrees F, and sunny. It got warmer as the day went on. I started off the day screening for my partner, Sam. Then we switched off. Sam dug the SW quadrant of our excavation unit, 18. I dug out the SE quadrant. We dug the arbitrary level 1, down to about 10 inches.
              We took a break at noon for lunch. After we ate we went for a short walk along the field because they had just been plowed. After, I kept on digging in my quad. Once I got to the bottom there began a slight change in soil. It transitioned to a lighter clay, yellowish in color. It was also very annoying to cut out all of the roots in our pit.
