My July 4th "Cherry Bomb"

CW camp finds after 6 hours of serious sweat. The Cannon Ball was a nice suprise....not being a normal camp find. The stone ink and some buttons were recovered from a Hut I located, including the Blue porcelain one recovered in the hut sift, which I thought to be an interesting find.

Thanks for looking and Good Luck in your finds,
Dave

Is this place protected (state/fed park)? Great research, I cant for the life of me think that you are at a battle site that isn't restricted. Are there such places? Everything around here is a stinking state park. (I shouldn't say stinking, because not everyone takes care of these places and I guess someone has to protect them.)

The whole state of Virginia would have to be a state park then, because, ALL, of Va's soil is enriched with history. So much Civil War history, most land was either fought on or camped on. This site is soon to be developed for new homes.
