    Sweet CW Finds 3! Good Finds With Pics!

    The first thing I'm gonna say is WOW WHAT A DAY!!!

    My father and I met up this morning at 9:00 a.m., to hit the camp we found last weekend. We made a day of it. I found a spur really quick, my second one, and daddy got in to some lead really quick. I back tracked towards the area that I had found the US Bit Boss last Saturday....and BAM!!!!....Another US Bit Boss. We continued until both of us were ready to eat lunch, so we left around 2:00 p.m. While we ate lunch, we discussed covering some different areas of the property, because we really had only hunted a small area. Daddy suggested that we scout some more of the property to see where we should start tomorrow...(Monday). We returned and started swinging again. I dug up some more small buckles and horse accutriments....We had been talking all week about how we hadn't turned up a button last weekend, and at lunch we had mentioned it again....When all of the sudden daddy looked up and said, "We've got one"! I said, "Got What"...then I noticed a smile from ear to ear. I walked over and he was holding a button. The button still had soil on the front, so I retrieved some water and a tooth brush from the truck. I got back, poured a little water on the face and gently tuched it with the tooth brush expecting to see a general service eagle looking back at me.......I was wrong...IT WAS A TREE!!!!!!!!!!!! I just about fell over. Daddy had just found his first button...A complete CONFEDERATE SOUTH CAROLINA STATE SEAL!!!! WOW!!! We hunted on a few more minutes until dark....planning our attack for tomorrow morning....MORE TO COME!!!!!

    Here are the pics of our finds from today 3/15/09!
