Day 11 - Last Dig Day

And Friday the 13th! Got to dig site about 845. Hot, dusty and windy.  None of this seemed to bother Emily.  Emily got to loosen her jacket with bones that she'd been working on. Pierre was tired of the sun and dirt and decided to stay at the hotel for the day. I decided to finish up digging up Pierre's bone.  I also removed some other dirt/rock and found a whole Trex tooth. Everyone thought this was a big deal.  They found one on the last day of last years dig, but this one was a bit smaller.  Needless to say, the museum kept it along with most other things. Ww did get to keep some other smaller bones, hadrasauer teeth and some coprolite (dino poop). Dug til noon, had lunch, cleaned up for next years dig and went ona short prospecting trip. Found some Stegasaurous frill (crown bone around head). Left it there for future digs.
