Spent another 6 hours or so at the camp on Fall Creek in Hood County, TX. It's still pretty muddy. Got another inch about 8 hours before I got there. Didn't even find a broken point and decided to pack up and leave. Took the bucket to the truck, told Richard goodbye and went to get my pick and jacket. Thought I'd just try just one more handfull of dirt. Sure enough in the clod I found this dart point. Couldn't believe it. Interesting enough is this dart point was in the projectile point layer. If this a Darl point it would somewhat make sense because the Darl and Perdiz overlap in time just a little.

Dug with Gordon and Richard today on Fall Creek in Hood County, TX. Found this Bonham (1200-600 B.P.) arrow point stuck in the wall. There's some dark patina spots on one side. The find of the day was one of the best Perdiz points I've seen. Richard found it shortly after I found mine.

Drove down to Chrisners in Moody, TX. this morning and met Gordon and some of his buddies. Stayed about 2 hours and decided to head to Richards on Fall Creek in Hood County, TX. As soon as a I got there I found this point within the first 5 or 10 minutes. It's really thin and has some nice flaking to it. It may be a Darl Blade. 2500-1000 B.P.
