Elm Creek Quilts [04] The Runaway Quilt - Plot & Excerpts
Dr. Frank DiCarlo and the two graduate students who had accompanied him examined the site and, to Sylvia’s relief, did not criticize them for uncovering it. Instead, the students photographed the log from several angles while DiCarlo quizzed Sylvia about the cabin. She told him the little she knew, pleased to see his interest pique when she mentioned Gerda’s memoir. The students had brought enough tools for themselves and several helpers, so Matt and Sarah offered their services as work began to unearth the rest of the log. Before long Gwen joined in, and when Andrew took a break from working on the motor home’s engine and wandered over to check on their progress, he, too, took up a short-handled brush and began sweeping away at the base of the log. Sylvia doubted her back and knees were up to all that crawling around on the ground, so she contented herself with supervising and keeping the archaeology team supplied with water and lemonade, and seeing to it that they took breaks for meals.
