Drunken Treasure Hunt

Ahh yes...  My brother and I consumed a large bottle of home brewed Mead this weekend...  What better time to grab the metal detector???

We only had about 40 minutes before dark and we set out into his back yard.   He lives on the outskirts of a civil war battlefield in VA.


Pictured above, a belt buckle was about 16" down.   Also a chain link nearby very deep in the ground as well..  I was excited to find some civil war era relics.  There is something prestigious that goes along with digging up things that people used in a war.   In addition to the above, I found a hoop ear ring, A stainless throwing knife that his son had lost in the sand, and a bunch of pewter butterflies from a wind chime.  BURRRRP!
