Indians believed animals had messages and were part of the spirit world. This morning The Commander saw a coyote within 50 feet of our little abode. Among the Indians the coyote was referred to as the trickster. What was he up to? He wandered off into the forest and has gone about his day. Today's mission will be to go to a site where a pot is sticking out of the side of a creek bed. This pot is a good example of the dilemma one faces with artifacts. Ned found the pot awhile back. It was a very nice specimen. Ned reported it to the archaeologist. Before the pot could be recovered properly, the creek rose and broke it in half. The pace that the government moves means a lot of artifacts are needlessly lost. Hopefully we will be able to see the other half of the pot still in the creek bank.
