Had a great time at the hunt and found a few relics. James put us on a great site! Road tripped down with MoBob and met up with Spectra1 and Bob's brother in law, Ed. It was great to see choppadude, VaMark, Kreagerm and others from Friendly Forum. Joe and I got into a good area the first morning and basically hunted it the whole weekend. Got some cleaners, 4 star base, my first 2 J hooks, eagle cuff, flat button and a yet to be ID coin. Also found a very cool carved roundball. I've found carved minnies before but never a carved roundball. It's different from any other roundball I've dug -- it seems to have a raised seam around the diameter and was cut around the diameter perpendicular to that by a soldier. Thanks for looking and HH
