It was like it was taunting us. Waiting for the time when it would suck in our boots in its all encompassing black goo......draining the energy from our very soul. The quamire from Hell!
Button-Hole:butt-Plate-And-
We had been to heck before and nothing was going to scare Navy Davy and I from seeking the treasures of the Button Hole.

We started in the area with the deepest muck and managed a few buttons. Our next course of action was to cross the stream, you know the one....where ND did a nose dive from a slippery rock! Before crossing he hit a good signal and out came a butt plate, intact and with some fancy engraving. A nice relic indeed!

Once across Navy Davy and I added a few musket balls and a circa 1840 Nova Scotia thistle token to the lot. ND's stash for the day

My few finds.

Of course arriving home I found my humble abode had become a hangout for wayward haunters!

After seeing that I opened my big fat mouth and ended up in the dog house after I told the Hunny Bunny I was going to find her two part time jobs suited for her many talents: rent her out to haunt houses on the weekends and the other as a test pilot in a broom factory. Some people cannot take a joke!
Rest in Peace
