Traviscounty Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I rented my apartment out to a couple of girls from Toronto. Got 11 days to kill, so Barefoot invited us up to North TX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traviscounty Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 Took her to the POC(her first time)......she walked barefoot down the creek for about 2 hours. Quite the trooper! However, she is complaining of a splinter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommabetts Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I hear ya'll are just chilling, have ya'll had a chance to look for anything up there yet? Or just fishing?

PaleoRon Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Thank you. A few more weeks and I won't have to rely on other collectors to help me maintain my remaining grain of sanity.

Oh-Man Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I gotta tell you, with 150 years worth of trash going into that creek I absolutely would not go in there bare footed!!! And this coming from a guy that digs splinters or glass out of his own feet at least 3-4 times a year. Mostly from running barefooted up and down my street chasing my kids. I'm still recovering from the 1"+ gash to my palm from POC last week. Darned oyster bed layer! At least it didn't get infected. What is geology? "Rocks for Jocks!"

Oh-Man Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 And what is the jaw? Is it part of the rest of Jax's human front tooth? Or something like a pig???

barefootgirl Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Well Im back! What a week I had. I got to do everything I wanted. A whole week of fishing, camping, fossiling, and arrowhead hunting and hanging with friends. It was sweet sweet heaven. My father even killed the bobcat last night . So here are my picts and I want to thank Travis for hanging out with me all week and putting up with my goofy self. Thanks also to snakekeeper for coming out and camping and providing for us. He has that whole camp cook thing down to a art, and his food is awesome. Travis has even more picts but he decided to stay another night out at the lake. Snakekeeper has some picts to share also. our camp site and my first fish of the day. Travis county and snakekeeper . snakekeeper deciding to take a nap behind a rock while fishing. our camp and snakekeeper cooking our dinner. This is the sweet arrowhead I found when I decided to just sit a run my hands through some gravel.

barefootgirl Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Here are a few more picts The bobcat! My Dads partner actually shot her. They sat in the pickup truck and she came in around midnight. He shot her with a 20 gauge shotgun and she dropped instantly. By the time I got to the farm the next morning they had already skinned it. They have all the good picts In formal logic, a contradiction is the signal of defeat: but in the evolution of real knowledge, it marks the first step in progress toward victory.

PaleoRon Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Folks in Texas do some real fancy camping. Your setup looks better than some hotels I've stayed in. The arrowhead you found is awesome. It looks like it's perfectly symmetrical. Congratulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
