Another Day of Detecting!

timekiller · Apr 2, 2011

Yep took the wife with me & the treasure Dog.

The wife went around snapping shots so thought I'd share a little of Timekiller in action. :wink:

It was a pretty day here finaly after a week of rain, wind, & cold temps.So I was do for some swinging action.And the wife & dog wanted to go so we had a nice day & burnt some energy. :laughing7:

Made a few finds.The spigot valve is a big one to bad didn't find the whole thing.I also think I've got another buckle hideing in the clump of rust.The rest are buckle frags,buttons,pipe peices,arrowhead,musket shot,etc.
Take Care,
Pete, :hello:

I have hunted shoreline just like that many times. Doesn't always give up much, but it's a great environment to dig!

Pete the pics are great. That's the kind of place that makes you want to dive right in. Looks to have been a very busy place. Nice variety of finds. Arty

bootyhoundpa · Apr 3, 2011

ive often wondered what kind of terrain you pull that super old stuff out of.... was that a settlement there or just a place where settlers got in and out of boats..... i always enjoy your posts...

Thanks bootyhoundpa,
It was both.In my opinion as there are places that show signs of blacksmith work with old slag & such.And no doubt that small shallow boats were used here as a port.I oyster some in this area & know of balast rock dump sites all in the area so cargo was being moved from here.
