Michael, Kira, Jesse and I went deep down into the Parian marble quarry today.
  
  Nice activity on a hot afternoon.
  
  These quarries provided the prized marble in ancient times for sculptures. Venus de Milo and Winged Victory of Samothrace are two of note.
  
  Most fascinating shining the flashlight through a 2 inch thick piece at the bottom in the dark quarry shaft.
  
  This is Michael at the bottom.
