    20210627_101456.jpg just went behind my cabin to check a cam.
    Seen something glistening in the dirt.
    I've been hunting these woods since last 80,s and good chance I used this although I cant recall.
    Guessing I spent some hard earned $ on this stuff 30ish years ago.
    Neat find.

    Another old find.
    Was just spring a plot and on the trail going too it i seen a "shine".
    I don't remember why this arrow was buried in the dirt but is one of mine from about early 90s.
    Have walked,ran over it with trucks,tractors n atvs many times over the years.
    XX75 2219 with a 100 grain thunderhead.
    Spent some hard earned dough on them long ago.

    Just got back from a quick tour.
    The RedRiver separating Mn/ND is dismally low.
    Got to a fairly remote bridge and went for a walk in the mud that's normally under many feet of water.
    Found all kinds of man-made stuff but this was unique.
    Some kind of pottery. Bout 5/8" thick.
    My guess its well over 100 years old?

    Low rivers make for some good finds.

    ****, I could barely afford those arrows n heads back then.
    I do remember feeling awful proud when I got them.
    Guessing late 80's?

    Where my cabin sits now, there was a house here back in the 20's.
    Just found this in the dirt by my pumpkin plot.
    Bet some little toddler was helping ma work in the garden
