-0900-1630. The weather has been relatively unsettled. It rained at around 0600 to 0630, thus I did not go for a run (also, I was tired from yesterday's work, so I did not feel well rested). We cleaned out the fossils and wrapped them.
-After breakfast at the hotel restaurant (note: we are staying in the town of A-ba-ga), we drove again to Baogeda Ula, where we split up into two groups: one group scraped surface matrix in preparation for screen-washing. The other group (composed of Gary and myself) proceeded to make plaster jackets of our horse metapodial, unknown fragment, and horse mandible.
-We got the fossils out, then started looking just up-section for more. It got very windy around 1600, when we headed back to the vehicles.
-end field notes-
[Ho Sukuan, Dr. Deng Tao, Dr. Yuki Tomida, guy I don't remember, and Dr. Qiu Zhuding][commentary: July 7 was also the birthday of one of the Chinese graduate students, Sukuan Ho. We celebrated her birthday with a feast at a local restaurant, with lots of singing.]
