I got out with Trooper Bri yesterday for only a half a day as the snowstorm was about to hit the New England area . We stayed pretty local just in case the weathermen were right for a change :lol:. The site was a very small cellar site with possible second home site and barn area.
It wasn't long before the wind picked up and the dreaded white stuff started to fall .

My best find of the day came early on near the small older type cellar , it was a "ratty" sounding target but i always dig these . It was a nice larger oval colonial knee buckle with an iron chape and tongue (the reason it sounded rough) and pretty much complete .:happydance01:first one of the year :bananadance:

After about four hours the snow was driving pretty good and the site got very quiet and Brian and I called it quits for the day . Besides my vdi screen was getting hard to see :lol::rofl:

my finds of the hunt included a decorative furniture escutcheon (brass pate) , the colonial knee buckle , a huge oxknob , a brass tube (maybe to an old fishing pole or alike) and a broken half shoe buckle frame .

After the snowstorm we here in Enfield got about 4 to 5 inches of snow , so it could be the last hunt for a while :girlcry:. It could of been much worse snow-wise. D
