Following every day here from a long way from Tx, but I'm drooling over all these finds. Most of what we have in my area of GA are all made of white quartz. Every one I find fills me with elation and wonder. Been a long time since we had American Indians living in my area and to find a perfect point is a thing of beauty and joy. I would to have a place like you have to dig. Amazing stuff. Keep the pixs coming!

I posted the Paleo stuff from yesterday but didnt really explain where I got them. I had dug across the "well" and was following the clay out. I had gotten about 30ft past the well and the ground sloped off toward flood plain so i didnt think there was much there but to my surprise the paleo layer began to widen and the hard pan started to rise. This got me excited because I realized that there had been a small hump in the ancient land scape on the other side of the well! Thats where the goodies came from yesterday.
Today, I started digging two blade wide and straight away. Sure enough the little hump gas a nice layer of old stuff on it. Im not sure how long the hump is but I found a nice Angostura and a Scotts bluff that was incredible in its earlier stages. Also found a petrified wood point that is seriously ground. Dont know what it is.
