Hooray! After three weeks in the field, tomorrow I am going home! As I was packing up this evening, I emptied my pockets and thought the contents might make a good "slice of life" pic for today. (Yes, those are latex gloves and dog biscuits - an important part of our safety equipment!) There are also a couple of rocks that I am taking home to add to my ever-increasing collection of geologic mementos (which along with "rocks," includes fossils, shells, and jars of sand).
