Detecting with Bubba & Andy - CW lead and buttons
Today, Andy (DD-777), Bubba (Pak of Nabs), and I joined forces to detect the woods at my CW spot. We started off pulling some buttons in a section that was an open field years ago, but now is overgrown with small pine saplings. In that area I got three cuff buttons and what looks to be part of an old cast iron pot (?). Andy got a nice button that he will post later.
From there we moved out into the woods along a stream. I showed them a few areas that had turned up CW lead for me in the past. Nothing there so we headed out further down. By this time these two tanks (Andy & Bubba) were huffing and puffing and I thought they would need to be air lifted out.
While they sat down to "compose" themselves, I continued detecting. It was a good thing I did because I dug a 3-ringer. 
They then got their second wind and joined me. Next was Bubba's turn. He dug two nice Enfields and then a full Williams cleaner. Andy continued to clear the woods of shotgun brass for us and I could tell he was getting a bit frustrated because of the steam coming out of his ears and his middle finger pointing at me. 
Not to be outdone by Potted Meat Bubba, I dug my second 3-ringer. 
Just as I was feeling bad for Andy I heard him yell.
I could see he was very happy. He had just dug HIS VERY FIRST CW BULLET, a musketball. Congrats Andy. 
After a bit we headed back. Waiting for these two guys to catch up to me was like watching two glaciers move.
They kept stopping to rest over and over. I almost called my grandma to come help them up the hills.
Just kidding guys, you know I love ya.
I had a great time today and we all found some CW lead. Four different types as a matter of fact!
Thanks for looking,
MM
