Default I finally got published
Been writing since high school. Even went to college to teach literature (even though I still talk like a hillbilly) but dropped out because my mind is useless when contemplating numbers. But I've finally can mark getting published off the bucket list! I wrote a piece for American Digger Magazine.

I also have a new video up.
Walked two miles of creek in search of yet another major civil war crossing. Found some interesting things. Then on to a home site that was captured by union forces in 1863. Oh yeah, and two owls. All videos are better will owls.

Awesome!


I always follow your videos.


We find some good stuff up here in AB. Most is over 1000yrs old up here, no civil wars or anything.


My great grandfather found two graves and old muskets when he broke land up north of GP back in the 20's. They figured they were klondikers that didn't make it.


found a small biface yesterday.

That's awesome man. We're lucky to find something from the 1700s down here.
Glad you enjoy the videos.

Not sure if you are a deer hunter but I wrote about killing a very special deer last fall if you are interested.
