    my farm stuff

    Pretty dismal day here in the northeast so I thought I'd cheer myself up by sharing most of the rest of my things. The first pic is my first point ever found. I was scouting with some friend for good hunting spots and happened to look down. My eyes haven't looked up since(except when hunting). The second is one of my favorite finds from our property, I was planting perenials and scooped out some dirt to pop in a butterfly bush and this practicly fell into my hand. The third pic is my biggest heart breaker(so well worked and so thin). The rest explains itself, I really like the two drills. Well I hope the weather is better where you are!

    Nice finds Tomsneck! I have yet to find anything on my property. I always keep an eye out though. My place used to be part of a big tobacco base years ago. I've heard that many artifacts were found here. I told my wife that I needed to till the back yard up. She wasn't very happy with that idea.

    Good luck!

    Re: my farm stuff

    Tomsneck,would have to agree about the weather.We are getting dumped on right now.Just got about 8 inches last night.Managed to make it out the day before yesterday as we had a short thaw.Walked back in along a stream with the hopes of finding a sun cleared bank.Had some luck as there was some snow-less ground which is saying alot considering most of the ground has a foot of snow on it.Did not find much a tip of a blade and a bunch of debitage.But I did find some more broken quartz both the white and the more transparent stuff.Havent found any blades yet but in seeing your pics, I can tell its only a matter of time.From time to time I come across quartz debitage in various areas but never the whole enchilada.Are you finding those tavern pipe pieces in the same area as your artifacts? I have found some pieces where I surface hunt.

    Nice finds ! I always enjoy veiwing arrowheads from the Northeast, maybe because Im much more familar with the styles and materials they are made from. Most you have shown look like they came out of the same fields I look.
