Sabai dee

After a relaxing 10 weeks here in Hawaii it is time to for me to get back out there on another mission. I am headed to Laos for the third time and due my not having been there for a year, the only word I can remember serves as the title for this post. It means hello.

Due to a late heavy rainy season in the part of Laos I am going to there is still water, and rice, in the rice paddies. As such I am headed down early to take a look at a couple of sites to decide which one my team is going to be excavating. I have thrown together a specialized, and streamlined set of equipment to allow me to get the job done. There is a metal detector in the plastic bag. I hope I can get it through customs without too much hassle...
