....while hunting a camp near Richmond, VA, I was ending a long, hot day in the field when I took a break and looked around the area...off in the near distance was a small knoll which overlooked the campsite..."That would be a perfect spot to post a sentry." I thought to myself...so off I trudged with my trusty Nautilus...upon reaching the crest of the knoll, I turned the machine on and swung it about three feet to my right..."Wham"...one helluva signal...but one which I had heard many times before..."Da_n it...another Mason jar lid!" I muttered to myself...but what the heck...one swipe with my digging tool unearthed this nice eagle breastplate...just goes to show ya...dig every signal!   It was the only thing I found on top of that knoll Grin
