On the board for 2017!

Hey all. Been a while since I've been out.

Got out with Frank last sunday for an all day hunt. Went to a spot that has been hammered in the past but Frank & I had never been to before. We found the spot after a bit of wandering until I saw the remains of a small bridge crossing a stream. Followed the road right to the spot & we began our day.

I had to change to my 6x10 coil as there was a lot of emi in the area and was rewarded with my 1st copper of 17 right along the stone outline of the foundation. Although it's smooth I think I see some details but hard to say if that it's really details or just oxidation.

Anyhow I worked my way around the foundation and got the pewter handle right in the chimney pile. As I moved around the foundation I got another good hit & pulled up this button which had an amazing amount of the orig. fabric still on it. Now I've had thread remains on buttons before but never the coat fabric.

Had a great day and bought the HD battery as my orig. battery is not holding as much power like it did.

HH,
Roger
