    Wow, nice collection. I too like the arrowheads :) A few years ago I found an arrowhead, and what made it so neat was the history of the area. I was a Student at West Virginia State University at the time. The area where the school was located was home to the Shawnee Tribe. There was a park/golfcourse next door to the school called Shawnee Park, and the remains of several burial mounds were part of the park.

    This park touched borders with the Universities property, and at one time the campus was home to the Shawnee Tribe as well. One day while sitting on a bench with (my now wife, girlfriend at the time), I looked down and in plain sight was a beautiful arrowhead just laying there in the grass and dirt. It just got me thinking on how long that arrowhead had probably remained in that spot over several hundred years, and the thousands of people that had walked past it every day on their way to class, and I was the person lucky enough to find it :)

    I envy you guys that can go to local places and find stuff like that. I have lived in Oklahoma most all of my life and have never found an arrowhead.

    Lots of small fossils but thats about it.

    I collect guns and coins. Currently I collect 2000 (+ or-) year old Roman and Greek coins, a very interesting hobby.

    Thats one of my other hobbies as well.

    I get into hobby kicks.

    One year its RC cars, the next its MAME (old video game emulations, one of these days I will build a real mame cabinet), the next its guns, and then its computers, and so on.

    I never sell my hobbies, I just rotate them.

    Holy Crap! What do you use to send the big one up? Just add a computer guided system, some dyno and you got yourself a poorman's bunker buster.
