Gotta Have An Uptown...

What a week of weather extremes! It started off in the 90s and thunderstorms. Then got windy and I experienced my first sand storm. I felt very much like dorothy. Today it was upper 60s and mild winds. I never know how to dress here or what to expect when I work! Earlier this week the winds were so bad, our shelter tarps ripped and/or split in half! Not good since this is our source of shade...

On a good note, my Aunt Sheree and cousin Logan come to visit me :)

It was a lot of fun and it is always good to see your family. I got to give them a museum tour and show them around Thermopolis. They also brought me so much good food and snacks! It was so nice of them. I also received the best care package from my family! They are the best! Below is a "town" in Wyoming called Kirby that has a really good bar/grill. But their receipts/bills have the address listed on them as "downtown" Kirby. Not sure how anything can have a downtown with a population of 92, but to each their own. 

Found lots of bone frags at the BS quarry this week. We brought up a mother and her two sons from Oregon on Tuesday. It was interesting to put it nicely. I'll set the scene for you: Dust was blowing at high speeds, I could barely see, the sons were not listening, one stepped on my hand, my partner Dan got hit by a rock in his side, we didn't find anything. OH and it was 97 degrees. Let's just say I was happy to be done at 5pm. 

Last day of my work week tomorrow! Hopefully something exciting is coming this weekend...
