Went out yesterday for the last diving trip of the season. We have been pounding this this Civil War camp all summer and it's still producing the finds. It was a good day, guess we'll end the season on a high note. :D

I found 14 bullets in all: nine .58 Minnie Balls, one .69 Minnie, three .69 musket balls, and one Sharps Carbine bullet. Also got a a few percussion caps, a nice pewter canteen spout and a perfect eagle coat button. Got some odds and ends also and perhaps the front of a plain 2 piece brass button?

There's still relics to be found here, but I'm gonna save them for next year. I'm ready to hit the land and enjoy the great Fall weather. :digginahole: :fall-leaves:

Happy Hunting!

Awesome ending to the season!! Congrats Buddy!:bowdown:
I wish I could have made the trip but that darn work thing got in the way again.:lol:

Thanks bud. I wasn't expecting much cause the spot seemed to be getting dry, but somehow the signals were plentiful. I might be down for another kayak trip soon if you can get off work. :D I might throw on the thermals and hip waders, and do some investigative work on a spot I've been thinking about.
 
WTG! Nice haul. More waiting for you next season. Yep, about time to head into the woods. GL and HH. Matt
