Primary Interest:
Relic Hunting
After the dreary weather with heavy cloud cover, rain, and some sleet in Tennessee this week, we were ready to dig relics. Unfortunately, Josh couldn’t join us this morning but Dman (Doug) and I carried on the Tennessee Trio tradition. We returned to a late 1862 Indiana & Ohio Infantry and Michigan Cavalry Camp. The site has been pounded but the F75s still locate a few goodies.
Our finds from the morning hunt are on the Orange Modern Miner “Relic Rag”. Doug shows off another section of a bayonet he dug in the other pic. He dug another section of a bayonet in that same exact area during a hunt in Feb. last year. We hope he can eventually dig the whole thing. My eagle button was just a shield variety. Doug recovered another broken brass tent tensioner and it read around “62” on the F75. Enjoy the short video and HH, Quindy.
Note-Our friend Ty reminded me that the "T" shaped bit Doug found is called a "Cheek Snaffle Bit". Thanks Ty!!

Thanks Steve. We will scout for new sites this week as the quantity of relics at that camp is rapidly decreasing vs. the time spent hunting. Continued luck to you my friend, Quindy.
