Ilan handing Ima her shoe in the gate at Tel Dan. For the significance of this event see the book of Ruth (Ruth 4:1-12) and the Jewish ceremony of Chalitzah (Tractate Yevan).

Cave 128, the cave I helped excavate ten years ago. Bet Guvrin is one of my favorite sites in Israel, sadly many tourists miss it.

I like how you said Ilan "placing" a stone of Ben Gurion's tomb. As I recall it was not quite that delicate.
It is so cool that Ilan is learning Israel customs at such a young age. (Of coarse anything to do with moving rocks around I think is genetic) love mom
