Digging

Francis and I went back to Spangle this afternoon to continue digging camas. He also showed me a great place to dig Indian carrots. During the first part of the day, the sky dumped rain in huge torrents, but after a while, the sky cleared and gave us perfect digging weather - not too hot and not too cold. Actually, it was perfect, and the mud made for easy digging. I wanted to take pictures, but I forgot the camera battery at home. Fortunately, I convinced someone to take a picture of us covered in mud, just so Shelly would know what she missed. I think this is what she called "hard core," as in hard core root digging.
