The Return of Indy-Andy

The adventures of Indy-Andy are in full swing this year and the summer is ripe with stories to be told.  Last year I sadly added no new blog entries, not because the summer was boring, but honestly because everything was perfect – full of excavating, traveling, and dining with lovely people!  But who wants to read about a perfectly tranquil summer of excavating in Sicily?!  Probably not my readers, who are used to chaotic tales of my adventures and misadventures abroad.  So hence I maintained an internet silence last summer, but now have new tales of unfortunate (but funny) events (more like “incidents” than events) that must be shared.  There was one incident from last year that I feel compelled to write about, as well as a few new additions from this summer.  We’ve dealt with quite a lot of shit so far – literal and figurative shit.   So yes, there is a poop story.  Hopefully there will only be one poop story, though, for the sake of the plumbing in Sicily.

A caveat – it’s been blazing hot the entire time that I’ve been excavating with my lovely team and my brain function is at an all-time low, so there will probably be many typos, spelling errors, and entire sentences that do not make any sense at all.  I blame the sun for my seemingly diminished IQ, but my apologies for my shitty English.
