    Hunt for Arrowheads

    I worked until I was 72, my wife couldn’t get out in the fields anymore so we didn’t look anymore. When I would have work to do out on our pipelines I would be looking for points etc. Just before I retired I was with a farmer who was digging across us cleaning out a drainage ditch when I looked...

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    These are rim adornos that were broken off of Mississippian bowls and pots. Some are hollow and have small stones in them to rattle. The large “corn god” has a fired clay ball inside to rattle

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    For the axe guys. We’ve found all sizes of these (called celts). The 2 pieces of the broken one were found a couple of years apart. The darker end laid on a shelf when I was smoking 4 packs of cigarettes a day and it discolored. (Food for thought smokers)

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    For pipe guys, this is a sandstone monolithic frog effigy pipe my grandfather picked up while waiting for our cleaning lady to get ready. Her house sat on top of a small domicile mound in the middle of a 3 large mound ceremonial center.

    Hunt for Arrowheads

    My wife and I collected for years. We have some artifacts on display and many boxed up that we found in agricultural fields and kept them from being destroyed by plowing, etc I grew up within bicycle distance from 2 very large Mississippian ceremonial centers and another large single mound so...

    USPS Fiasco

    Nowhere near as bad as you guys but my wife’s debit card was expiring February 24th and our banker said that she would receive a new one in the mail before that date. On the 23 we went to the bank and they created us one on site (they are not as durable as the one being sent but serviceable) and...

    Shotgun came already loaded.

    I found a little CVA Frontier in a pawnshop in West Helena,Ar. and when I dropped a ramrod down the barrel found out that it was loaded. I told the guy behind the counter “you know this one is loaded?” He looked surprised and said “what can I do about it?” I told him to make it affordable and...

    Beaver's

    My western property line is the Big s Sunflower River. The Ol’ boy in the picture made his home burrowed into my bank. I believe he was a bachelor as I never saw any more. When I would mow across the top of his house he would shoot out the underwater opening leaving a bubble trail reminiscent of...
