Another great dig with TJ at the Shoepeg site. The place is loaded ! We dug Saturday and found a ton of stuff. He is digging a very large camp and should go for a long while. Here's some pics of the best finds. It was a killer day for me. We has our own personal screens so if you get a chance call TJ. He is a great person to dig with.
A killer 6 inch knife. Covington perhaps, Kinney. Out of this world.
I found a bunch of killer stuff including a die for G-10 3.6 inch Root beer Perdnales, a sweet 4 inch rootbeer archaic knife, Kerville Knife a 4.2 inch root beer covington, a ragin perd and, a sweet root beer Frio and others. There were others found not pictured including a G-10 out of this world Martindale.
How about the transparancy. Sweet and clear as honey, thin as paper. It will go in the nice case.
I must be the Mano king. We were digging the kitchen as I found a dozen hand axes, manos, hide scrappers, brokes, you name it. I left most by the tree as I have more than enough for the garden.The hand axes are really sweet though. I am sending this group to my buddy Tom Christensen in Florida. He needs more for his garden ! Patty will appreciate it.
Root beer knife in situ..
Awesome Martindale before cleaning.
The end to A PERFECT dig! Thanks TJ !
Looks like a good solid G-9 on the Covington! Very
Nice & Congratulations!
Good report Everybody likes to see those overall site pics too.
If your handly with the photo editing on the PC, , ,wouldn't that be a sight to place the translucent sky shot over the Red sky pic !
Whats a Perd die ? preform 
Hal,
To "die for" means enduring 25 MPH screening winds and lots of dust in the face to get that choice Purd and others. I am still cleaning it out of my ears. You know how it goes.

Ach Zo,, , ,I knew that !. . . I was just temporarily thinking of " taps & Dies " Something like twisting
a piece of flint through a " die " and out it comes a G-10 Perd !
I tried to do an example of the sunset sky shot I was suggesting above. It's no where near as good as yours could have been cause I couldn't find a sky laden with screening dust causing the spectacular colors ( [

Hey Jeff.
All I could do was post your find as I could not remember if your name was Greg or Jeff. I was also unable to get your Martindale posted as the picture was bad so I put up TJ'S. I should have been more specific on who found what. Congrats!!! I will trade you 6 manos for it? He He He
Hey Jeff,
I also have a cool spot North of Austin. I am going to dig it tomorrow if it stops raining. I hope to post some good finds. I have your number and you are great to dig with. You bet.. Lets make arrangements. I would screen with TJ a lot if the cost were a bit better. Like $ 300 for the whole weekend. I think he is in a good spot. 208-867-5762. That is my personal Spud-Line.
