Its nothing to pick up a handful of pottery shards in just a few minutes. I took my daughter there when she was about three years old and let her pick up pottery and arrowheads (I had a few in my pocket just in case picking was slim). I was telling her about how I've always wanted to find a bird point. I described this to her and how they have always alluded my eyes. About fifteen minutes into our venture she turns to me and asks me if this was a bird point. There in her tiny fingers was the most beautiful bird point I had ever seen. It was perfect and so thin you could almost see through it. Not a nick or a break in it. Wonderful day that was.

The main difference between Americans and Brits? Americans think 100 years is a loooooong time, while Brits think 100 miles is a loooooong way.
I have a nephew who is an attorney by trade but also holds antique auctions. He travels to the United Kingdom and a few countries in Europe buying furniture etc. and has it shipped back in cargo containers.Most is a couple hundred years old at the most....over here it is very expensive antiques...over there it is JUNK. :lol2:chrisy":2c4ml10z said:Just up the road from where I live now is a Quaker burial ground and it is written that some of them were related to the Pilgrim Fathers.
