*Luke found the report of our dig at Loughbown 1 near Ballinasloe in Ireland and there are photos of the ringpin I found. When I first found it I said, "look! a golf tee!" Instead it was a 9th century bronze ringpin on my first day at the job. Amazing!

Even if some things I wrote make me cringe of embarrassment it really helps to bring memories back.

*I am in Regina this weekend for the second weekend in a row. Although this week is a little less stressful than last.

I am getting camera training this time. Even though I use my camera quite often these days, I do have a lot to learn. In general my shots are too loose and I need better sequences. It was great to go to a press conference today and come back and be really satisfied with my shots. It is all about changing my tripod of position each time. Not taking shots in a straight line. Different angles is key. My trainer is brilliant and has a way of explaining things in a way I understand.
