Met up with Navy Davy on the chain gang early, before it got to hot. The Button Hole was beckoning! Sun came, we sweated and then sweated some more. Digging with shovels and picks we hit a honey hole. A glory button hole. Navy Davy was in heaven!

Fantastic bunch of old buttons you guys got there :congrats: after cleaning those buttons with good gilt on them I like using a five minute lemon juice soak on them, it really makes the gold brilliant!!
