    Colonial Cellar Hunt

    My buddy finnaly made it out from Ohio to do some hardcore New England Cellar Hole Hunting! We almost flipped his S.U.V, He crawled into a cubby hole with a glow stick that illuminated several venemous spiders, We got turned around in a briar field and had to rely on the compass to point us back to his vehicle, but it was all worth it....He was able to witness me pull this CT copper and other relics, but unfortunately Mark didnt' find any Coins or buttons, but he did get a nice tick bite and some really impressive square nails.
