A longer day than usual. Because of Daylight Saving, which means the sun sets an hour earlier from this week on, excavation started around 2pm rather than 3pm and continued until we ran out of light shortly after 5pm. In Krysta's absence, Kaitlin Deslatte assisted on site, particularly with Unit 5.
