MDing with my NC Homies

[ModernMiner]

Well Folks, I played host to DD-777 (Andy) , Mave (Chris), and NC-Joe (Joe) here on my home turf today. We hit the 1779 plantation house first and then the 1830's CW house.


***BE SURE TO SEE NC-JOE'S POST*** He found a most EXCELLENT find today!!!
Just goes to show you, you can go over a spot numerous times and STILL miss some targets.

As usual, a day full of laughs and busting each others chops.
Joe is a BIG guy and would barely fit in my 4-runner. He looked like a guy in a clown car.

My meager finds for today were:

*Domed shaped button with shank & "Gilt" back mark.

*Old skeleton key

*Strange looking heel plate

*Rusty pocket knife - CW?

*1948 Wheat (whoopie )

*Asst'd mystery items - Any idea on some of these trinkets?

*Some sort of hook - any ideas?

*Small bottle with "Illinois" on the bottom.

Not the best day of finds, but it was great hanging with my Homies! Thanks Guys.

The heel plate is way cool. I've never dug an iron one myself, but I've known that they existed.



Nice hunt, my friend.

I agree.
I was more nervous that those three would drive two hours and find nothing, since I've been detecting the place for two years now. Boy, was I wrong.
The smile on Joe's face made it all worth it. I'm glad someone found that Colonial at least.

Nana,
Funny you mentioned that. When Joe got in the 4-runner, I asked him if he would like me to open the sun roof. I don't think he likes the taste of bugs.
