Well — I’m too old to shovel — but, I do have a pail...
And, as an archaeologist, I also have a trowel — and mostly use the bucket as a seat...
‘-)
[THAT IS SO COOL THAT YOU ARE AN ARCHAEOLOGIST!!!
I’m so glad you have other equipment than a shovel! Whatever it is that we bring to our Q threads, if we are in some way digging.... or synthesizing.... or organizing.... or in some way contributing..... we are set for some GOOD FUN in our sandbox!]
~~~~~~~~~~~~
...which reminds me of one of my favorite family photos...
On one of our many family summer archaeological field schools with TAS, (the Texas Archeological Society) our middle daughter, (then about 9 or 10) used her bucket as a seat — but forgot to invert it.
So, her skinny little fanny got stuck in the bucket! And she had great fun trotting all around the dig with a pail on her tail! (And, Dad got the ever-embarassing photo...)
‘-)
[Good for you and big applause for capturing that wonderful moment!!! That is such an endearing story! I’m sure your daughter has had many laughs along with her red faces over the years!
I REALLY like and identify with your daughter.
That all reminds me of a similar incident in my life for which I’m eternally grateful that for once, probably the only time in his life that Dad did not have his camera at hand.
We were gathered at a family campfire. I was all of 6 years old. It was REALLY uncomfortable on the ground - rocky, uneven, - it was just awful. I found something that was nice and cushiony. Just laying out there on the ground. I collected several and I set about arranging a nice comfortable sitting situation. I was happily sitting there with my s’mores and my Dad asked me, “what are you sitting on?” I replied that I didn’t know, but it was REALLY comfortable! He said, “let me see.”
I showed him and he let me brag on my creativity....I didn’t really notice the twinkle in his eyes and the tiny curl upward of his mouth. Then when I wound down, he asked me, “do you know what that is?” I of course, said that I did not.... but right now it was my seat cushion!
He said, “well, what you are sitting on is what we call a ‘meadow muffin.’”
“Daddy, what’s that?”
“Dried out cow poopy, little one.”
At this point, the entire family as one broke out in hoots and a deafening roar of laughter.
You can see why my poor little id is so fractured.]
(FWIW, “Archeological” (no “æ” diphthong) is the official “Texian” spelling...)
[Quite right! Of course it is.... and very proper it is, too! ]
:-D
And -- as one of the Texas Historical Commission's Archeological Stewards -- it suits me just fine! '-)

(IMPORTANT NOTICE It turns out there is a very good reason why Q is always saying to re-read the crumbs or Drops! THEYVE CHANGED! Future DOES affect the Past! Below are some of the changes I have observed in the Drops just through the letter A plus one thing I noticed that makes a big difference in the Loop definition.)
PLEASE VOLUNTEER!
Swordmaker needs curator FreeQs to compare sections of the
LexiQon with the referenced Q drops in the Aggregator Site used to find
anything that may have been amended by Q since the Drop was first put up. If you can help,
Please Freepmail Swordmaker so a section of the LexiQon can
be assigned so no FreeQs are duplicating anothers efforts. Thanks! Swordmaker

Channel One News was a school television network seen daily in more than 12,000 classrooms nationwide. Cooper graduated from Yale University in 1989 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science. (Credit FreeQ TEXOKIE). During college, Cooper spent two summers as an intern at the Central Intelligence Agency. Although he has no formal journalistic education, he opted to pursue a career in journalism rather than stay with the agency after school, having been a self-proclaimed news junkie since [he] was in utero. After his first correspondence work in the early 1990s, he took a break from reporting and lived in Vietnam for a year, during which time he studied the Vietnamese language at Vietnam National University, Hanoi..

As a radio-personality Schilling was signed by the Howie Carr radio network to do a Saturday morning politics and sports show. An outspoken conservative, Schilling joined the website Breitbart.com in 2016.

- Imaged JetBlue AirBus A321 Airliner in flight: (#1592) The imaged aircrafts Tail No. N944JT is the same as the AirBus aircraft used in the JetBlue flight 1623 that was surrounded by JFK airport police and Homeland Security officers after the planes flight deck did not respond to radio communications while taxiing for departure at approximately 8:00 PM on June 26, 2018, somehow the crew requested a return to gate. This occurred about two hours before Qs posting. Q hints at a false flag being averted. (See A321, FF, SFO).

You're a great online archaeologist you have a pc! Digging that is... for gold, dirt, the goods, proofs, foods for thoughts... or even like an undertaker for some.
