Title: a place to knap.
Post by: Spotted Dog on February 04, 2016, 02:35:54 pm

 Today I found a perfect place to knap. Along a big creek close to my home. A big sand bar
with rippling water over the rocks. I may go back in the morning and relax with some stone.

Creeks and running water is just a great place to be. Maybe a picture of your creek would be nice.
