Wisconsin's Dirty South

And some more catching up with somewhere we spend a lot of time. Richland County. See you later this summer, STH 60. xoxo.

Catching Up

It's not even May, and there have already been four weeks of the field season. I've spent all four weeks on excavations in Burnett County, which made a couple of my blog posts last summer. The four weeks yielded thousands of amazing artifacts from a Terminal Late Woodland campsite along Webb Lake, one too many early wood ticks, and many nights at Heartwood being lulled to sleep by frogs and haunted by the cries of the loons.



Because of the hectic pace of last autumn's excavations, I lasped on a few blog posts. Here's a photo recap of what I missed. Black River Falls and Merrillan:

Majestic P!


There's always room for jello.


A sweet old restored bar in Merrillan.


Outside of Merrillan. Yep.
