Good morning everyboomie.
We had an absolutely perfect Wednesday. I went to the sod farm for three hours. Didn't find any arrowheads. I did find an arrowhead wanna-be, three scrapers, and an awl.
After coming home and eating, I took a nap, and then went out to cut down the pear tree. That was a bigger job than I thought it would be, and I'm ready to take a two year advance on my 22 years of sleep. Ahm tard!
Have a happy day everyone.
Oh yeah. No partridges Sorta.
