I got back yesterday from working on this dig, and had a great time. It was my first field school experience — but despite the fuckery that is tent-camping in central Texas midsummer, I can safely say I’ll be back every chance I get.
The project was a beautiful reminder that even in rural Texas, there are plenty of unsung heroes out in the wild who dedicate their entire lives to building community and looking out for others.
