Now that's a good point

Samantha and Dad went out exploring around our new place in Va. this afternoon. The temps have been in the high 50's and today was an excellent day to explore. I had introduced myself to a couple neighbors who are farming the land behind us last week. We talked for a while, and they told me they had found some nice Native American artifacts through the years in the plowed sections of the field. We just started drying up after a good soaking rain so indeed today was a good time to look for some of those artifacts. It didn't take long (after Sammie fell asleep on my shoulder) I spotted the tell tale signs of quartz chips scattered about. I looked to my left and a good 20 yards away, stood this brilliant white stone resting on top of the recently plowed Virginia soil. As I approached closer, there was no doubt it was a point. A beautiful quartz point fully intact. I spent a little more time picking a few more when Samantha awoke and we headed home. Here are my finds today.
Enjoy!

Re: Now that's a good point

Nice points, I can't believe your little doll is that big already, I agree she must look like her mom, cause i've seen you.ha ha. This is larry here in Tenn, give me a call when your back in town. I still need some instruction.
 
Re: Now that's a good point

Great finds there Mike! :o It's funny that we were all just discussing here the other day about how rare these quartz points can be and you go and find yourself a handful! :notworthy:

How are ya buddy? Have you all been out lately? I have been so darn busy, I can't slow down enough to talk Maggie into letting me go. LOL That's why I went out looking for points today, I can take Sammie along. It sure is nice to hear from you Larry,

I know it! That top one is sure a beautie. I could see it from a good 20 yards away. White as could be.

Thanks buddy
 
Re: Now that's a good point

Little Sammie is almost a year :o amazing ! I remember the newborn baby pics :) points are awesome :thumbsup:
 
Re: Now that's a good point

Mike, where do you live in Va? I live in southwest Va. Thanks
 
Re: Now that's a good point

I get the point Mike-LOL. That's a nice one. In 5 years or so, you won't be able to keep up with Sam. VOL FANS are supposed to find artifacts. Don't blink as you'll look around and she'll be enrolling at UT-Knoxville. I guess you will be selling your detector(s) now since you have started eyeballing finds huh? WTG, Q.
