Trip To Dirtyville Nets French Colonial Relics.

[Hans R Dirty]

Had a great time in Dirtyville this last 2 days. Here's a few snap shots. First pic was our accommodations.
The staff was very kind but the food not so good.
The second pic is where we hunted, man I am out of shape.
The last 2 pics are my finds. My first ferree or French dyke shovel, only 300 years old and 594 miles from New Jersey. I'd like to thank Ironhorse and Ironpatch for the great time and can hardly wait for our next adventure. Diggem deep and leave it clean.....cheers!

Looks like you have some keepers in that pile . Id like to see a pic of that knife cleaned up ..pretty cool digs !

 

[Hunthicks]

Good digs right there! I've found two of those French dyking shovels...as good as a trade axe if it's in the right condition!

Looks like you and the Iron Bros. had a decent couple of days... I found one of those shovels also but not near that condition... I know where you can get a few $$ for it
Are you on for tomorrow?

Yeah I figure 1812 stuff but definitely can hit some really early stuff too...

I think those shoe buckle frames are the find of the hunt. You almost got a complete one from a field.

Thanks Kirk, I love them old buckle's. I know the shovel is ugly but is was very important during early cultivation and a hard to find relic today. link...http://www2.umoncton.ca/cfdocs/etud...0&bd=CEA&lang=en&style=G&admin=false&linking=

LMAO!!!
You had me going there Hans. I thought maybe it was a bit rough up there in Canada.
Great hunt guys. That looks like some beautiful countryside.
Congrats,

as I told I Patch the other day, the luck factor goes up when you're on the scene, we've never had a hunt that ended in a skunk !

good having you around for the fun

no where near New Jersey

 

[SouthJerseyJim]

The farther away from NJ the better. You guys are like colonial hoover vacs and would put the heat on for me! Or we could always team up.... Nice finds! Love that shovel.

Skunk? Where you live? No way! And you could not have said it better, fun. 594 miles is not far!
