Evie is entirely too gleeful today. Possibly it's all the Caff-Pow, possibly it's the doughnuts that are open in the box on the table.

"I found us another excavation site!" She spread out a map of the island on the center table. "It's just north of Selkie Cove. Or, at any rate, it's supposed to be. The wreck of the Albatross, a Spanish privateer that was run aground in 1592. Captain Gregory Thorpe and crew had to abandon ship and head into the mainland, and weren't able to find the wreck later. It could have ended up in the sea caves along the shore, and it definitely hasn't been excavated since."

"I think next week, we should go out to the site and try to ascertain where it might have ended up. As well as making lists this week, of what we'll need to start a full dig! I'm going to look for more information in Special Collections this week, to narrow the search down, if anyone else wants to help with that."

"I...might be able to." Billy said hesitantly. It sounded interesting, but he hadn't made up his mind about certain things.

"Well, we'll certainly leave you a space?" Evie said hopefully. "It's probably quite a large site, and we can use all the help that we can get. Let us know if you can't make it, I suppose."

If he couldn't make it likely he wouldn't be telling anyone.

"No problem."
