Really becoming interested in central and South American Spanish main. I think a well planned mission could yield a significant amount of treasure. Most of the places im studying and researching are nothing more than small towns and deserted ruins. Places like sacrificious Island, San andreas Island (old providence), lake maricabo and its surrounding towns, porto belo, nombre de Dios, .....and many other important areas that the buccaneers utilized in there raids. I can't even imagine what could be found where these rovers were based and where they shared out and careened....many of the careening locations and camps can easily be found with Google earth and historic narratives and locations. There is tremendous opportunity down in these locations and some have never had a detector sweep !! Many locations are given to raids and beach landings to the exact mileage from known landmarks !!

with a 41 foot sailboat, a kyak, and the equinox, ill come away from this sleepy little town called porto belo with a kings ransom in cobbs and artifacts !! Give me 2 weeks in this anchorage, and I'll have been at every possible spot that Spaniards and buccaneers used. Its always the view from the boat that finds the spots that were used by sailors to do there business......almost always on a shoreline !! The few who have gone that I know, and that actually used a metal detector are still screaming at me to go as soon as I can. My friend Bradley says that once on site there are many ruins, foundations, and old wells everywhere in the brush and jungle.....he found several old caches of colonial coinage while there. They went in search of drakes silver and gold, and said they did unbelievable just metaldetecting the jungles and beaches of potabelo.....and yes he was smart enough to look for the old town which is not where the new town is !! They measured there success in pounds of silver coinage when they returned to the keys !!
 

Interesting ! The Hubble has been doing its thing up there for 30 years now. One of the tasks it was asked to do is to focus on the darkest portion of space (that had no visible objects/or light coming from it)
So it did a Deep Space Time Exposure of that small area. The experiment took 400 orbits to complete (every orbit looking deeper & deeper into space) .With a total 'Exposure' time of 11.2 Days.
And the results....Every point of light you see is a Galaxy or Clusters of Galaxies.Billions of light-years away.And millions of years old.... And some believe Humans are alone in the Universe :laughing7:

I don't know about easily.
I do believe your ability to research has been well honed.
And how you sift through it is more effective than many others.

An intuition that pays off is far more than merely easy. It's experience /veterans luck.

Being both researcher and field operator on any large scale takes a lot.
But you get to keep more of the rewards too!

Keep at it.
You're well beyond "swing till ya hit" type hunting. But keep swingin anyways.
Reasonably safely preferred.

That's better than , I'll never do that again . Followed before the days out with , I'm ready for another taste again.
 

Cool 46F with a breeze this morning.
High of low 60s today.
Taste of what's coming.
I grabbed a sweatshirt last night for the last couple outings. Still cool enough this morning for it too.

Been watching the plantain. It's about ready for stripping mature seeds off.
Noticed some leaves falling a week or more ago. Let's pretend they were just tired...
A bit of color on a couple maples on side tops.
Ya , we're winding down a season to up another season.

Ogled the cedar and birch in your gazebo pic. the other day and was reminded of a couple spots up there.
We've similar here in areas. But certain spots in Onterio looks like what I consider Onterio.
Not sure if the flora and fauna are as unique as the memories, but they are all linked for sure.
