yes it is Tricia, he and his wife went down to the local grocery here,and the workers of the store called and told the news.I haven't seen him around yet but its only been a week or so since they bought it.

For the life of me i can not seem to find a picture of this place,Stone barn castle is/was a farm and art museum and its in Cleveland NY.I know during halloween they use to convert it into a haunted house you could pay and go through it,also hay rides and stuff.I'm 2 minutes from this place if the weather is better in the next few days I'll try and get some pictures of it(if i can)being its owned by a movie star now.

Hey to you guys in Binghamton, Endicott and Vestal. I used to live in Endicott (now in Raleigh NC). I got my start detecting there. Found my first silver, a Walking Liberty Half Dollar in Vestal. That got me hooked. I used to go over the border into PA to a couple of old camps. A boys camp called Camp Choconut http://www.campchoconut.org/ and a girls camp called Camp Susquehannock http://www.susquehannock.com/book.htm. The boys camp is in Friendsville and the girls camp is in Brackney. I'd recommend you give them a try after the camping season is over.

I found a lot of silver at Camp Choconut. The boys camp was founded in 1896. Boys from around the world used to go there and stay in cabins with wooden floors. As time went on the cabins, one by one got old and were torn down. I don't know as much about the other camp, but it's been around a long time too. Check out the cabin pictures in the links.

Good luck and happy hunting.

Yeah I know it well. Used to go to horse shows there all the time.

Funny, for the life of me I still can't figure out why a movie star would want to buy Stone Barn. I suppose everyone needs their own castle. LOL But the castle part is really a facade with two rooms. There is lots of room if he wants to live the farm life. Hope he has horses, the ring is still there even though the footing has probably deteriorated. But a big ring to ride in.

Just didn't believe it when a friend who lives in Central Square told me that.

Funny thing about Brody, I think he's the kind of guy who can blend in. My friend from Central Square wasn't even sure what he looked like or what movie's he's been in.

Good luck to him and his wife. There's not much happening up in Constantia so they'll be the talk of the town until it all dies down. ROFL
 

Doesn't he have a large/odd nose that's a pretty good tell right there ;D I liked the movie Son Of Sam in which he played the lead actor..actually he's been in tons of cool movies(the remake of King Kong) anyhow if i run into him I'll say hello from everyone :D
 

That's funny, i've been wondering about the stone barn ... use to go there when i was a kid ... Been wanting to hunt it ........... think maybe they will let us Shawn .. LOL
 

Wild idea...write to Mr. Brody and ask. :o

Heck, maybe he's into MDing. Ya never know.

Part of the stone barn museum had an antique farm equipment display. Remember touring through there and there were tons of tools too.

Seriously, maybe Mr. Brody would want to find some treasures for his castle.

I can guarantee there is at least one horse shoe around somewhere. Friend's horse lost one of it's shoes during a horse show and they never found it. ROFL
 

Im also in Plattsburgh(12901) and around Champlain, that whole general area..lots of places to visit. I usually md with my brother as it goes faster but it'd be nice to pair up with someone from the area. Found a 1905 dime in one of the newest parks here so there is plenty of potential. I swing a Umax
 

wappingers falls/ poughkeepsie right here, im always looking for people who share my interest in local ny history and would like to go and check some places out around here.

Hey, I also am looking for treasure hunters in the Upstate N.Y. area. I live in a small town called Athens that is located apporox 30 miles south of Albany,N.Y.. I don't know to many places to hunt yet but I am looking to find areas. I have had a Radio Shack discovery 1000 for about 3 years and found somethings local with it and also when I went on vacation a few times with it. I can't wait to get out, but here the ground is still fozen and you really chew up the ground when you dig. My wife just bought me a Whites Prizm 5, for christmas. I have not tryed it yet, but cannot wait to. Well type to you Treasure hunters soon.
 

I live in Rochester, NY. Just got a Fisher Edge II...can't wait to get started in the spring. Gonna hit the Erie canal.
 

Hey Bruce

I am in the Albany area, I detect west of here by 30 miles or so sometimes. Love to meet new people in the hobby. Maybe we can get together sometime

Hey you guys from Binghamton, I came from the Town of Bing. Parents still live there. I come down a few times a year. Would love to meet and swing the detectors a little.
