California Dreamin'

I don't know if I've ever put these pictures on here before so I thought I would go ahead and show them. These were obtained through trade with a couple different people and the 4 Points in the last two pictures were a gift during our Secret Santa on Arrowheadology. All of the Beads are Glass Trade Beads except for the 4 surrounding the Abalone Shell Pendant and they are Shell Discs. Most of the Points and the Limace are Obsidian but there are a couple Basalt Points and one Quartz Triangle.

Thanks everyone.

capsmith, the guy that sent me the Beads said they are all from the same site and they glass as well and could be related but probably early settlers.

GTP, I started the Secret Santa on 'Ology two Christmases ago and it has been very successful. I try my best to match up people from different areas so everyone can get artifacts that they wouldn't normally find. I also set it up so that people know who they are sending to, but not who is sending to them. It's been really fun.

That is such a great idea!! Well done

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Someone could do one here very easily. You just need to get addresses from people and try to make it an even number and them match them up. It takes some time but it's not that hard to do.

We should kick that around. I'm still new enough here to not know the group as well as some. As we get closer to the holidays I might see about doing that.
