A postcard

It's Sunday morning in Tucson. Two busy buying days behind me now, and a day to slow down a little and take stock. I run around picking out lots of stuff, then often have to wait a couple of days (or more) to find out exactly what I've spent. Which can be a problem. More than once I've found myself short of a fair bit of cash.

So - today I'll try to round up the various piles of fossils sitting in hotel rooms, tents and cars around the city. And put them in a big plastic crate. I've bought two collapsable shipping crates this year - will be a big help. I used to have to build up wooden one each time, and dissemble them on the pavement outside the shop. A real pain sometimes, and though I got it down to a reasonably quick time, it was still not something to look forward to on a very warm day.

So far, so sunny. It hasn't rained here since before Christmas. Doesn't seem like it's about to start.
