Last Thursday, I had the lovely opportunity to go on an archaeological dig with Professor Luley and a couple other students enrolled in summer field school. The dig is what I expected it to be–a lot of digging and a lot of dirt, but I had so much fun. The field staff was trying to find evidence of a Revolutionary War Prisoner of War Camp. So far, they had had no luck in finding the remains. But, with each dig there is something new to discover. At the site, I learned that there is a lot of trial and error when it comes to a dig. Every day there is a new piece of land to uncover, and the ground may or may not hold the evidence to what the diggers are looking for. If it does, great! If not, just keep digging. I will take the level of enthusiasm and adventure these people have and apply it to my digital project. I am discovering a world that is new to me. I will learn by my many trials, failures, and successes, and through it all I will keep digging and exploring.
