New pictures of old finds.

[Digdoug]

Haven't gone digging since last fall so I thought I'd share some pics of my CW relic finds from years past.

Here are some of my bullets. I have 27 left...have probably given away an equal amount to the land owners who let us hunt their farms.

This bullet is sometimes called a pain bullet. Some have said that rats chewed the bullets too.

This is a carved bullet and is kind of special. I can see in my mind a lonely soldier taking a break and whittling away at it by the campfire.

These are Spencer cartridges. The one in the front is a partial bullet with some of the casing still intact.

My goal is to not work on Sundays and after I feel more comfortable about our situation I'll take off one day out of the week. I'll still work the evening job though. If all goes as planned I'll be able to relax around the end of March and eventually reduce some of the work load.
