Hello Everyone,
This is my first post on T-net, and I’m pretty excited about it. After hiking some serious hills this past week, and enjoying some spectacular land with truly wonderful people, I have aching muscles, and a VA State Seal Button to show for it. I truly did not expect this, for the week began slowly for me, in the way of finds. We’d returned to a spot that exuded history. Take out a few choice tractors, and cars, and it was exactly as it had been 150 years ago.
Imagine a creek, roaming cattle, & sunsets..


Remains of an old covered bridge..

My first great find at the last hour was an intricate, silver plated buckle, what I believe to be a woman’s sash buckle, held at her waist.

This other buckle is a product of Rodeo’s, same place, same time. We were excited to see both come out of the ground!
And here are photos of the Virginia button (a non-dug example appears first):



I had a great time with the Iron Brigade earlier this week, and hope there will be more times to be had. These two ROCK with machines in their hands, and I can’t thank them enough for teaching me what they know.
Best Wishes & Love, “ Prof. Lady “
P.S Seriously, Bonzaibrandi
