    Starting 2016 Off Right

    Went out with my buddy today for a few hours. Still on the search for an 1800s cellar hole however we did have quite a few finds. Hole has to be close. Found a horseshoe, 1920s fork, and 3 little musket balls right in a row just feet apart; must've been dropped. Not a bad start to the year
