    Blenoser goes relicing 1854 and 1863

    Thought I'd for go quota and the F3P and take the Pro for a spin in the woods. Just one of those days that a walk in the woods with a light rain was what this bouy needed. Hit a few old coppers and dodads. Great to be able to still get out this time of year.

    Nice digs! Do you know the age of the harmonica reeds? I found one fully intact with both reeds.
