Got out with HomeGuardDan this weekend and scored 2 1/2 more artillery shells and a bayonet. The bayonet was fully exposed in only one inch of water. Hard to believe some fisherman didn't snatch it up years ago. The shells include a 6 pounder solid shot, an exploded Hotchkiss and what I believe to be a Read-Parrott, but I'm not positive on that as it looks a little different. The really smooth Read is one I found a few days ago and didn't post. I just took it out of electrolysis and cracked the crust this evening. It's a beaut for sure....

The bayonet in-situ and untouched as found...

And a bunch of baby spiders on my house just for giggles...

Thanks for checking out my post. I know I'm just on the Civil War stuff now and it may be a bit boring to some, but I'll be mixing it up soon...
