We finally got some rain here yesterday that put enough moisture in the ground to get a shovel to go more than an inch. I decided to go hit a spot that I found after work today and see what I could come up with. Found some flat buttons and suspender clips. Also found an unknown item that reads
May 28 67 Carter Pat. Not sure what it is yet but am trying to figure it out, any help would be great.
Looking forward to getting out again soon, have plenty of sites to tackle, just need some time.

Looking Good H.B.!! Rain we received yesterday helped us today too. Y'all have better looking flat buttons up there. Good Luck this season, Quindy.
 
Thanks Quindy, it was good to get out. Only had a couple hours but did allright.
Here's the good iron I found.

Well Bill Hilly, these are great signs as you well know. I think it'll be one hell of a fall window for you boys up there. It's just a matter of time now. Best of luck in the diggin.
