    We are planning on the second week of April. Let me know if your heading there as well. we can try to set up a group hunt or two. The rest of the week we're planning on traveling around and door knocking.

    You guys had a great year. I am amazed that the ground is still not froze in Wisconsin. I went out yesterday just to say I did and I did not hit any frozen ground. Even managed a Buffalo and 3 wheats. I honestly think I may have a chance to hunt into January so you guys should get an early start in 2019. Congrats WD

    Can't seem to understand technology my friend. Ornate thing appeared to have been a pin. Has gilding on it with some kind of glass or stone. Probably Victorian. I just wish I could find more older stuff. And Don always comes to my side and steals my half dollars.
