:super: ROADTRIP STARTS THIS FRIDAY! LOOK OUT VIRGINIA HERE WE COME !!! :super:

[Butch in Colorado]

Pam and I are heading East this Friday. It is nearing time for DIV V and the wife and I are participants in a really cool dig. We will be headed for Virginia this Friday afternoon a couple of hours after I get off of work.

I'll be headed to Strasburg, Va. to visit my best friend and do a little detecting on his spread. He lives very near the site of the Battle of Fisher's Hill and I always manage to pop a 3-ringer or two outta the ground there.

Then it is off to Culpeper, Va. where I will be hooking up with Ed SW Fla and we will be partaking in the DIV V event 24 - 26 March. Pam and I are really excited and hope to uncover a bunch of cooool relics. I'll be posting pictures as long as the internet connection continues to work at the motel. Sadly enough I did not meet with Ed at DIV 1 and we talked briefly at DIV II. (I did not even realize it was ED!!! I'm a DORK!!) I won't make that mistake at DIV V!!!!!

And then THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE TRIP!!! Pam and I will be invading Vern's humble abode for a couple of days. Being that close to the V'man and not making a visit just did not seem right. So Vern has kindly accepted my request to visit and bask in his "Vern-ness." Can't wait to see the killer dog up close and oh yeah, Vern too!!!

I'm hoping we can go to the Espresso place and share a squrming moment later on. We'll be taking in a few sights near the Cross homestead and I'll be sure to post some kodak moments. Chance's are Vern will get them posted before I do but that's fine. My only regret will be the new editions of photoshop that will most certainly accompany this visit. However, I still need to dust off my copy of Paint Shop Pro X and see what I'm capable of.

Then it's back to my friends place is Strasburg, Va. for a couple of days and up to Gettysburg to round out the road trip. Yep, driving all the way.

So stay tuned to your favorite forum for pic's of Butch and Pam's most wondermous adventures starting this Friday and playing until the first week in April!!!!

The fun is about to begin!!!!!!

While you are here in rural Virginia don't be surprised to hear things like "Y'all ain't from around here are ya?" or "Where y'all hail from?" Drooling seems to be acceptable in these parts and there's some odd looking banjo players around... if you get my drift.
Pappy "Pass the Biscuits" O'Daniels runs the Sheriffs office and "Boy" is how they address everyone they pull over for going 5mph over the speed limit.

Y'all come on down an sit a spell, Ya'hear?

Welcome to central Virginia... What we won't have here is failure to communicate.

.... let you ride his John Deere ATV .... let you whack some weeds ... let you shoot killer turtles in Lake Cross .... catch a big bass with his cute little Barbie rod and reel? I'll bet he does let you shovel horse dukie out of tthe horse house ... perhaps he'll let you and Pam share the spare stall.

Sounds like a fun time ... take lots of photos, OK? See ya Thursday at the pre-hunt meeting. Hopefully we can show each other some pre-hunt finds.

Jeff, we are gunna miss ya bud.... perhaps you'll be at VI.
