1740 House First hunt Update....uh...I forgot the turtle.

[tymcmurray]

Joe and I hit an old site while we were waiting to
get to a new site, a 1740s house on 26 acres.
I got two Indians, 1896 and a 1861 fatty, at the
first house.





The rain came in hard, so the second hunt was
shortened. I did, however get a very nice Colonial
Shoe Buckle with a bit of Silver Gilt still on it.

Cool. The fatty looks to be in decent shape. Exciting to hunt those really old sites.

Rain was constant all day long here. I got a little lake in the back yard.

Cool buckle and fatty there. I have yet to find a fatty. Had a couple dug by a buddy 5 feet from me in Canada but not me. Congrats on the successful rain day. Just think you could have just kicked back in the recliner and watched the TV and rain. You and CM got out and saved some history. WTG!!
