Finds From A Friends House

[possumheaded]

Went detecting at a friends house yesterday before work and had a blast. I'm hoping to get to go back. I didn't have a chance to post last night so I'm doing it now. It's one of those places that you just know that something is there waiting to be found. It's a old rock house and I've been told that it was one of the first houses in that area. I will take a picture next time and also try to find out the date it was built. Anyway, I found a couple of neat little things but not too old. It gives me hope though. Along with the stuff in the photos I found .55 cents in clad and a couple of 30-30 shell casings, some pull tabs, and other usual junk. I hope to be posting some more things from this house in the future. Thanks for looking at my stuff and I hope everyone has a great week.
HH,
Ed

Hey Possum! I found one of those little boots a couple of months ago. Rob says it's possible for it to be one of the prizes they use to put in Cracker Jacks boxes. If you're diggin' at one of the old rock houses, no telling what good stuff you'll find!

Congrats on those finds and good luck on your return!

Thanks Seger98, everything is going much better. I think my sister has accepted the fact that my dad is in a better place now. I spent a lot of time with him over the past few years and on several occasions he let his feelings be known about his situation and I know it was an answer to his prayers and that has helped me get through it.
Also, I had got the word I could be off that week in Feb. but I just found out about 20 minutes ago that the conference my wife was going to attend down there has been cancelled due to "economic hardship through out the state". So it looks like I won't be coming down after all. SUCKS! Maybe next time. Thanks again.




Happy Hunting Everyone,
Ed
