....only to crush my new record a half hour later.
after the spring floods that turned into summer floods that I thought could last into fall floods finally receded, my Dad and I went to the farm today. We only have about 400-500 acres of soybeans that weren’t flooded out, but at least they are healthy. We’ve had a crew up there fixing culverts and levees and plowing the unplanted parts to keep them busy.
i went to a couple of satellite sites off the main ridge a ways to see what I could see, because I’ve beaten that main site to death this year. It was really hot, and the ground was turned a couple days ago with only a sprinkle to settle the dust, which makes it hard to see anything artifact-wise.
Anyway, the second place I stopped I found this blade. Almost stroked out....right there, dead as a hammer.
It was then time for some a/c as we drove a mile or so to the next location I wanted to check....
ten steps from the truck I found the second one...and it doesn’t even look real it’s so big.
i found three or four more brokes, not a whole point for the day, but man...I’m happy as a clam.
also grabbed a double handful of pottery pieces I’ll post tomorrow. I’m exhausted and have to work in few hours.
