some tractor finds including russy's pelican lake heartbreaker

[larson1951]

good thing the tractor needed some diesel fuel this morning
when i walked around the front to put a can of fuel in there lays a neat little prairie side notch point made from some nice KRF only about 10 feet from the strawberry patch
next i look at a little spot before i turn it over and here stands russy with this pelican lake heartbreaker
so i went and got him a kleenex (so he could wipe his crying eyes) and came back to find this little fragment with some etching on it laying right where we were standing, i think it is part of a broke that i found years ago
last is a piece of buffalo rib that was cut with a flint knife for some reason, russy is always willing to share
you know, when you have a good friend who will always help you with your chores, then you have a good friend like russy

That side notch is a nice one, Man it is too bad about the broken one. The cut bone is interesting makes you stop and think wonder what they were going to do with it

I like the pic of the side notch ...a very pretty point!

The high quality material gives it a glowing appearance as it lays there in the dirt.

Nice looking finds Steve. Do you that incised Bone might be part of a Game Piece?

Also, in the in situ picture of the incised Bone is that a small Triangle Point just to the upper left of it in the shadow of the dirt clod? It sure looks like one.

I saw that triangle shaped pice in the shadow of the dirt clod too amd wondered what it was maybe Steve will get on here and ID it for us. I am always just to look at his dirt pic's.

Man you are living the dream... drive tractor around, find arrowheads, and pick strawberries. Life just doesn't get any better than that!

[flintdigger]

I don't think I'd be much good at driving the tractor and looking at the ground

Here's one I found this spring from the tractor. It's broken but huge.

[flintdigger]

That is a pretty good size piece. It is kinda hard to tell from the photo. Is that the left side of a base on it or just the way it broke ?

[BJS in Iowa]

It's seems to be broken there too but it's hard to tell even when holding it in your hand. Even so everyone I've showed this to is impressed by the size.
