Some Nice Civ Before the Snow Comes.

Found these where some Confederates, led by General McCausland, camped one night in August 1864. I know there's more to be found at that sight, but it's been brutally cold this week, and we're going to get hammered with snow Friday, so I'll wait for later. Anyway, we have three dropped 58 cal Minie balls, two fired ones, two 69 cal round balls, one 70 cal round ball, what I think is a musket hammer, and a Richmond Labs 36 cal bullet from the Colt Navy pistol. All of these were found in an area about 10 by 10 feet, some maybe they at a campfire? Who knows, it still neat as hell, and I'll be back there as soon as I can. Spring will be here soon! Enjoy fellas, HH!

I found a pistol bullet like that once, very cool! Nice assortment of bullets. Sounds like a great site. Keep us posted.
Maybe the snow will leave as fast as it came

I hope your right about the snow, but I bet it's here for a while. We're looking at two to three feet tomorrow.
