Default FINALLY went digging......

It's not much, but these things did add a little weight to my pouch. Went to a horse farm today, before work. I found a couple flat buttons, an Enfield bullet, a Spencer bullet, harmonica reed plate(who didn't have a harmonica during the War?), and a brass whatchamacallit. Found a blacksmith-made hoe and a couple other items that I gave the landowners. I made the mistake of petting a thouroghbred mare. She followed me EVERYWHERE I went. When I got down on the ground to dig, she towered over me. A couple other horses came up and she ran them away. It was funny. She fell in love with me, I think.
