Looks like your on a good spot for sure.
Well done.

Thanks Aarc kinda one of those dream places you find on rare occasions. Gonna be Gone very soon but I think those of us that have hunted it are pleased with what we Saved and walked away with. Watch for others to post WP finds.
 

That is a lot og great items for you to sort out and catalog.

Man I have bowls of stuff soaking and box of iron to go through. My wife says I'm not going back til I catch up on cleaning:laughing7:
 

Killin it man! I had to flip and flop your print plate. Looks like people or town names maybe? No clue what the characters are after the ...'s. Can't wait to see what else turns up there.

Yes it does look like names of towns to me. Crazy variety of finds from different periods. I wish I could find the rest of that statue. Oh well a foot is better than an inch I guess. VMIairpower and TwinPicks are hunting tonight. Wait til you see some good Coins and Buttons and a Bird broach that was found. I'm saying that is a part of a candle holder. Do you agree?
 

Shame you live so far away. You'd love it

Oh I KNOW i would! trouble is, things are getting further and further away.....for me anymore. :(
 

Nice stuff, keep digging brother!

Thanks Brad. A Nice Rev button was pulled out last night by someone hunting for a few hours in the WP and hope he will post it soon. Finds slowing down but they are still being Saved.
 

Just getting back on to TNet and curious after your email-absolutely awesome site that has been and ashame it will end soon! Hopefully coins will get some detail. Love the pottery sherds.

Well I've witnessed Cletus get awful ornery after losing at checkers.He Kicks the ground and stomps about and sometimes jumps in his truck and runs down to Patch's Drygood store to pout.Well if he comes home still pouting Aunt Mavis will whack his old bald head with some of her great great great grandma's blue china. That's why ya see all them that busted shards.

Yeah too bad you and Digger were not there. There is stuff still coming out but at a much slower rate. There are a few amazing Coins that will be posted soon by one of the Pickers and an amazing broach. A Great Rev button just popped out last night and hopefully that Picker will post it too. It was amazing to see that amount of shards laying on top of the patch. And after it rained or Cletus Spread more dirt it would be full again. And yes We all will Miss the WP.

Well its hard to feel sorry for Cletus especially knowing he's had his hands wrapped around some of the finest melons in the Low Country. That by the way gets him in trouble at times too.:laughing7:
