The life of the Archaeologist's Apprentice

Amazon having duly delivered Tricia's new Wellington boots, today was the chance to test them. On a lochan nearby there is an island with a submerged causeway leading to it and on that island are a few interesting lumps and bumps. Clearly someone had to paddle across to investigate. It could have been me but Tricia's new Wellingtons were taller - and it looked quite precarious.
Either way the route there and back was effected dry shod - which is a pity in some ways as a photo of someone floundering around in the water would quite probably have made a better blip!
