Chris and I went on a relic hunt today while Kyle was on a date with a woman he had just met. 
We had a successful hunt and from what Kyle has told me about the date, "She is a winner. She is so sweet. She is a good woman." 
The weather was a perfect sunny day with a little chill in the air. Chris and I each had a great time and the Colonial relics were plentiful.
We decided to hunt the area of the field where we had located a strict Colonial site. From our estimates, we believe that the site was settled in the 1770s and went defunct sometime around 1780ish. The site has a decent amount of iron and pottery sherds. We decided to focus on the deeper, iffy signals and make our sweeps a lot slower. It worked very well for me. I got a handful of early buttons. One button is made of pewter and looks to have a design on it, but I cannot make it out. 
There Was my Rev. war button, Iron Patch. My best one for the day was the Colonial Blowhole button. 
This is the 2nd one dug at this site. I also got the Colonial saddle piece not too far from the buttons. I believe it is to a saddle. Any help would be appreciated. 
Chris had a good day as well. He dug a Colonial copper and a handful of tombacs.
All in all, I rate this day to be one of the most enjoyable. The weather was awesome 
, my Nissan Versa almost getting stuck in the mud on a farm road , Chris driving up the farm road in reverse with ease after I just barely got free , digging Colonial relics with my good uncle....Priceless!
Keep the passion high!
