Default Hour & A Half Hunt = Clad & A Nice Button!

Yesterday I had about an hour and a half to hunt so I decided to stay in the neighborhood. I had permission to hunt a house just down the street that I had hunted before so I walked over. I have hunted the yard surrounding the house without much success so I decided to hunt a 1/8 acre vacant lot area that was a vegetable garden when I was growing up. I found a nice eagle/anchor button, $1.65 in clad, a dog vaccination tag (no date), and a few doodads. It was a fun hunt and I always enjoy finding a military button! Thanks for looking ... Jimmy!
