Thanks, buddy! Every once in a while I see that light at the end of the tunnel, and realize that Viginia ain't the only CW Relic Promised Land. 8)

Thanks for the reply, dude. That is what it's all about! Not only the best in terms of quantity found--but also in terms of Knowing what I had when I got that first one (since I'd found the keeper about an hour before!). A day I will never forget.

Onward to the next Great Find! It's time for some other folks in my team to make the Banner--Luck has been on my side so far this year.

Buck, I've been seeing others using the bump word. What does that mean?

Since this is still, in my opinion, one of the best hunts on Tnet EVER, I am going to bump it up to the top again! :thumbsup: You deserve it, buddy! :icon_sunny:

I can't wait for your recoveries this fall!

Me either, buddy. I think this fall will be HOT. :wink:

I couldn't resist bumping this one up. I haven't put the coil to the soil in three weeks...but our chance is coming soon. I think the weather is gonna break. :thumbsup:

I'm glad this got bumped back to the top of the list, It was just as fun to read the second time around. Good luck finding another spot like this one in '09.
