Here is a quick story from yesterday. I was coming out of my hole with a bucket of dirt and there was a lady standing right in my way. I had to stop to keep from running over her. I killed the loader and she asked if I was building a "parking lot" ! LOL! Who the heck would build a parking lot there! I looked North and saw a sports car that she had driven right past all my posted signs and right out into all that loose sand.
I assured her I wasnt building a parking lot and she said ,"Well i see you are doing all this construction and I just wanted to tell you my uncle told me this is an ancient Indian site and you cant build here!" I told her I was well aware of that fact and I would continue with my project.
She again expressed her concern and asked what it was we were doing. I told her I appreciated her concern but i would continue to do whatever i wanted on my own property! She just stood there untill I started the tractor up. She got turned around and drove out without getting stuck. Dont have a clue who she was.

According to history and my ancestors all of America was an ancient Indian site but that never stopped progress before now has it. I guess something got in the way of the old biddy learning to read too. Keep upthe work I am ever more envious of what you are finding.

You gotta keep an eye on folks like that. I see you are right near a bridge where people can drive right by and see what is going on. She will obviously spread the word and you might start having a problem with potlickers coming in at night and trying to find a few. That happens on the ranch we dig at in the hill country.
