My Wet & Wild Weekend...Updated With Pics!

[River Rat]

This may very be my last hunt in this field, it was cultivated & harrowed and grass seed planted. After Saturday evening, night and Sunday morning rain, I ventured out to see what I could find for the last time. Well, you know it looked like it was clearing and then starts raining again, well I just stayed out there for about 2 hrs. I finally gave up and went to the house to get dried off, dry my hair, lay down take a nap. Get up and wander back to the field. I'm minding my own business when the calves decided they were gonna see what I had on the ATV, my two dogs didn't like them getting too close & gave a chase right towards me in the middle of the field. Using my flipping stick to scare them in the other direction, I lose my balance in the mud and wind up falling right into it. Well, needless to say I look like I was wrestling hogs in the mud. So much for that, this is what I found the 1st trip out, the 2nd trip I found more, still covered with mud, so y'all gonna have to wait on me to clean em up.

I guess you did your last dance in the field for a bit, and you did it with a little class (Slip-n-Slide, Groove-n-Glide).

 

[River Rat]

Did the happy dance too. I think my finds were pretty dang good...just got to get them cleaned up. Oh, I forgot to mention that my husband is gonna dig me up a new area sometime in Oct. I hope I can find just as much as I found in this one.

 

[old digger]

Bet you just can't wait!!! Can't wait to see your first find.

now that's my kind of TH'ing. It's just no fun if there isnt a little adventure while finding goodies. am waiting to see the cleaned specs.

In the 2nd pic, @ the bottom, in the middle...I believe it's another piece of quartz crystal. Plus the 2 I'm holding, do not have the Louisiana traditional rock color. This is everything picked up Sunday in the rain.

now thats some cool looking findings. Any chance of finding some pottery?

 

[River Rat]

Pottery sherds in the 1st pic (upper right). Just don't what I'm gonna do with all the little sherds, chips & flakes...just thinking may decorate my shadow boxes.

very nice material
you sure have a good area
you should take a red tobacco tie out there and leave it...then return in a week......
....it may bring you luck...especially if it is gone when you return
