Buckleboy (buckleelf) and myself got permission to hunt a site here in Louisiana. Have been finding some bullets and cannon ball fragments. Here are a few pictures.

Some nice CW recoveries guys. Glad to see BB is out swinging again. I heard his hands were getting a bit soft. :tongue3:

Congrats,

Looks like you guys are on to a VERY promising site. Great finds and much more to come from you two I am sure. If it's there, BB will locate it. HH, Quindy.

Hey now! That hat is a Serious piece of metal detecting gear.

It's great to have a good friend here to go digging with.

Rough? You should see my metal detecting bouncer. He is tall, rotund, and got a face only his mother could love. His name is Doug. :laughing7:

Thanks for the MDing christmas card, Doug!

I have never felt more certain that a button would be CW than when that one was dug--and I was so wrong! It is actually a great seal button. Don't have a clue what that was doing in there.
