On 7th January 17 people started digging on the site next to Carter's House at the entrance to the Valley of the Kings. They are involved in the important task of preserving the tombs in the Theban Necropolis. An exact facsimile of the tomb of Tutankhamun will open to visitors next spring.
The project has been funded by Factum Foundation.

With a new level backyard we needed to put in a retaining wall. The first step was building a trench.
Then they put in sand for a level starting point.
Three intrepid fisherman out on the ice and sifting through the muck to find wigglers (mayfly nymphs) used for fishing bait.
It was the most beautiful summer evening, near midnight, sun was setting soon. Suddenly the girls wanted to go fishing to the lake. First they had to find some worms. . .

Ah, summer is really here. We went to the beach down in Santa Cruz at Natural Bridges, and it was chilly and windy but it really feels like summer now.

This guy may be a musician too, but was thoroughly enjoying the music when I spotted him. As you can see, he also has a fantastic beard
Several years ago we purchased a wonderful piece of land in the untouched hills above the city where I was born. Summer days are sooooo hot here and the sun is strong so this year during our visit to Montenegro we decided to try to find water and build a well.
I was surprised to learn that my high school math teacher is also a well-known and successful “water-finder” in the area. He uses the principles of radiesthesia. First he surveyed the lot with the brass dowsing pendulum and then he used two L-shaped brass wire rods. He managed to locate about 7 “water spots" and then marked the strongest one for us to start digging. www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://diviningmind.com/stor...
At that particular spot he estimated that there are 4 water runs that are meeting at depth of 7-7.5m underground. So we started digging.
After huge winds in the storms of the past few weeks, Bayshore residents and property managers begin the gritty task of digging out. Sand blows like snow on the Bayshore spit. It just doesn't melt.
Over and over the same job. Even today while planting tomatoes in our backyard, watching the gusto with which my father attacks a patch of dirt with a shovel is a sight to see.
The grass and weeds had to be dug out by hand. The plot was infested with Dock, dandelion, couch grass, bindweed and nettles. This was very slow going , but thorough. Each 10m x 1.2m bed took at least 5-6 hours to dig and the quantity of roots removed was almost as much as foliage I took off the top!

Found this shovel today among my daughter's toys and could not resist to abuse Barbie again for this shot...
The task was for Bunny Danger Awesome Slash Trouble and Chicken to dig beneath a tree in Happy until they could find a buried treasure. They were unsuccessful, but not discouraged.

Aaron Bird digging on a hole where part of an unnamed run sinks just downstream of the Water Entrance of Windy Slope Cave, Preston County, WV. We made the lead into a big hole then dammed the run to fill it full of water to see if the lead would flush a little. We'll return later and see how things worked out. Druid Camp 2009.
