Speechless

[painterx7]

I went for a walk today at the mouth of a creek and didn't really have much luck but that all changed very fast !!! I really can't describe in words how I felt when I looked down and saw this base sticking out of a one or two day old footprint . It took me ten minutes before I finally pulled it out very slowly . I still can't believe I found this it doesn't seem real . A guy like me just doesn't get that lucky . I looked around to see if someone was playing a joke on me but didn't hear anyone laughing . Nothing I've found comes close

Heard a loud noise over this way . I would retire after that one. Beautiful flute and base. It is to say the least a rare and old type. Well done and congratulations. I can't believe that it is whole.
A survivor for sure.

Congrats Painterx7 ! You have my banner vote too. That is not just a rare paleo point, just look at the well executed fluting and edge work on that perfect bad boy !! I would have been looking around for the hidden Candid Camera crew too. Great insitu, and clear photos, must have taken some deep breaths to control the heart beat and excitement. Take your time and enjoy the view as you stroll along on top of the world ! Congratulations again.
