To make a long story short got up early before work and with help of 4 cups of New Orleans community coffee ( jet fuel coffee ) got home not the truck and headed to N.O. I got into a patch of old deep shotgun shells and they have to be old because they where at least V-nickel deep. And then at 3” I pull a old Navy soup spoon. Believe it’s WWII in the 40’s. Although it’s not silver but “U.S.N” I’ll take it all day. Well back to work....it did make for a good day.

And yes the handle came out first and yes I almost died for a second IMG_2509.webpIMG_2510.webpIMG_2511.webpLife is so cruel IMG_0012.webpIMG_0012.webpIMG_2512.webp

Just noticed this bullet with the hollowed tip. Of course I broke it with a toothpick but is it old?IMG_0012.webpIMG_0012.webpIMG_0012.webp
