Hey Bone pile, take some pictures of the Clovis points on display if you can. Would like to see them. If you know of a web link to see them that would be great also.

I am curious about where to stay, Roger.  That area was pretty busy last year.  Angie will likely be with me and I'm thinking of setting up my big tent.  Is that horse camp ground doable?  I wonder...I've got Scott Mitchell's #.  I'm going to call him and see what he has to say because all cabins/camp sites are booked out.

Hey all, I am considering coming down from Savannah, GA way.  I guess guys will be working rock and I could sit in and maybe learn a bit from folks who know what they are doing?  I am a novice.

@PaulC - You'd be hitting one heck of a fine event to get started at.  About as good as it gets, I'd figure.  Worth your while.

@ Tim - Really looking forward to seeing you and meeting your girl.  It will be nice to sit and talk. 

Sheesh, sounds like we might have a pretty big circle of guys.  I'm really looking forward to enjoying the event this year.
