Today Civilman, Howard and myself met up with two new diggers,
Sam and Brian. Sam took us to his brothers property that is along
the route that General Lee's men pushed the Calvary from Williamsport,
to Boonsboro, Maryland.
We were literally crawling through the briers to hunt the property.
Civil and I were in our element!!!
Around lunch we decided to head to Antietam and those ploughed fields that
we have been have luck with.
Sam pulled out his very first bullet. Man, what a rush!!! I wish I had taken
my camera into the field to capture that moment.
Here are Howard and Sams finds Minus the bullet.
These are my finds for the day. Well, there was a tourist from New Mexico
who stopped to chat up Civil and myself. She was a very nice elderly lady
who was fascinated that we were still able to pull out quality relics. She was
so excited to just hold a 58 that had just been recovered that I HAD to
clean one up and give it to her as a memory of her first trip to Antietam.
