I went out hunting with Mastereagle the other night. We were at this awesome old 2 story built in 1908. The ground was fairly wet, but we didn't find much. I suspect some fill dirt had been hauled in this place. What a bummer.

Anyway, I did manage a couple things. The little dog, I discovered, was a toy from the 1940's and 1950's. It came with a little box of snakes (like kids burn on the 4th of July) that would make it appear like he was pooping as it burned. Haha...how cool is that. I think he had a tail at one time that broke off. He is a little bent up, but I am super happy with him. I also scored a neat button, a beautiful 1920D Wheatie and a chewed musket ball. Not too bad despite few targets I guess.
