It's Over and Done Now

Texas Archeological Society Field School 2008 - Perryton

The TAS Field School near Perryton was a howling success (just ask our tent campers about wind and rain).  Folks are back home now with war stories and bragging rights, and many are already planning to attend next year's event.  We'll be assembling photos for a Field School 2008 Gallery; stay tuned for that link to materialize on this page....
