Video 4 - The Peralta Stone Maps with Frank Augustine

[RG1976]

Morning everyone,

Yes - actually - LVB - it seemed there was a staircase there - similar to the one you see on the "front side" of the foundation. If you look at the video - I quickly pan over the rubble of a staircase that looked to be covering that hole. I will make sure to film that in detail when I return.

House was built over a mine tunnel. The hole is a root cellar cooled by the cooler air from the mine

Had a look at the 1961 Aerial of Florence Junction, Arizona.
The two deep holes with the berms around them are visible, as is the large diameter hole, but not the berm so much as the other two.
So those three at least were opened before 1961.

Good old purple holy stone the rock of champions!

I'm going to at the very least dig it a small way down after I scan it with my modified whites 600 deep seeker in cave mode. If it shows a hole I might even rent a GPS (Ground Penetrating radar) just to be sure I'm not extracting mortal remains of some poor *******.

If it is another hole with out a body or possibly what looks like a stone map I'm inviting you guys out there for a Grave Diggers cookout complete with steaks and beer!

Ryan, I hope you don't get down there under that house and find a series of women's panties or worse an old out house pit!

It looks freshly dug and fairly mysterious.

Black Legion?

I know one time when I worked as a gandy dancer for the Burlington we found an old foundation with a basement. Upon entering the basement with a friend of mine he grabbed what he thought was a Girly Magazine before we could see it. Once out side he opened it and started reading when he discovered it was a recent edition of Mr. Naked Magazine! We wouldn't let him live that down! Seems as though the neighborhood girls had a spot just like the guys!

Wayne I detected the wash and the only target was a shot gun shell. Bill thin rods will not work in broken rock. I use to use them in Pennsylvania in areas with non rocky soil. Perhaps the spot is a Holy Stone ritual site. At any rate it's not a good idea to go off in the desert or mountains alone. Things happen.

Bill, "Gandy dancer"?? haven't heard that word recently. ( My father was the brake man on the narrow guage RR that ran between Grsss Valley and Necada City Calif. ))

There are a few houses in Superior where there is a cooling shaft under the house.
I was under one house once doing the sewer line rebuild and there was a swamp cooler under it with a wooden vent going up outside into the house.

Frank and I were granted a private viewing of the stone maps today - at the museum. I promised everyone I was doing a lot of research on this video - and now I'm pretty happy to say it includes a lot of shots / video like this one.

Notice the heart - and the tape that was covering it - years ago! That heart was drawn on by a pencil.

Meeting with Mr Greg Davis tomorrow to wrap up this video.

I want this to be the best video to date.

nice Ryan, did you happen to get measurements

I'm having the same issue. Looks like Tnet servers are struggling tonight. All white page for me as well.

Last I saw - TnMountains was asking for a synopsis on video 5. He was thinking 38 mins was pretty long! Went to respond to him and the page won't load.

Like TnM said it is the apostrophe in the titles..

It was not allowing mods to edit title last night like it normally does, but I was able to edit title a few mins ago..

 

[RG1976]

Thanks!!

Is the "no apostrophe" the guidelines going forward? The thread Deering's trail has one and seems to be working fine as of the past few minutes. Is it only in the title of threads or in the messages as well?

 

[Treasure_Hunter]

For now yes, issue comes and goes....
