Old Foundation

[Bottles2Buttons]

Yesterday while digging in an area that appears to hold an abundance of treasures, I decided to take a little break & go scout another area in the wood's when I came across this very old foundation. It was truly amazing, I felt as though I stepped into another world. After searching for the owner of the property, I finally found them. Very kind older couple, wife 90 & husband 92. Both sharp as a tack & were all to happy to sit & tell me stories of day's gone by. It was the husband's father's childhood home, which had been in the family for generations. They gave me permission to dig in & around the area all I want. So you can imagine how excited I am to go back, which will be today!! 😊😊
I wanted to share the beauty with everyone here.

Detect around base of walls... look for largest trees around and detect direct at root base very slowly and thoroughly even angle coil up same tree base slightly and slowly to half a coil up.

Also,,, if any of the very large trees have large horizontal limbs... detect under them... low ones the better.

Looks like a good area for sure. Do you want me to come over and give you some pointers ?

Looks like a magical place you'd run into Rip Van Winkle. Did you hear any thunder?
