OK all,
I must have really did something great for the MDing / Treasure Hunting Gods because today and a few days ago they really smiled on me.
Today I was driving along in a local town and saw a pile of furniture, appliances and other things stacked outside this house. They looked like they were for trash pickup so I stopped. To my surprise there were people still moving a few things out of the house.
Now what a surprise it was to see that one of the people was a guy I used to hang out with in high school. He bought this house and was cleaning it out for trash pick up tomorrow. He bought the house for resale of course. So after we exchange some stories about how its been since we last saw each other about 15 or so years ago, plus getting me to give him so free labor helping him carry out more torn up furniture (place was looted) LoL, I have to ask can I MD the place. He says sure.
Now as teenagers we were always trying to put each other down and get the best of each other. He said that I should start by looking in the house. No MDing in there though and tearing out the floors wall he said. As I was getting ready to look in the house he said to look just inside the door. THere was some collectibles of value there I could have. I looked inside the door and could not see anything of value. I peered back out and asked him what he was talking about. He said "Right by the door man, Pepsi, Coca Cola, collectibles. I look back inside and see just a few aluminum cans. I look back outside and he is holding up a back. "Collect them and about 10,000 more and you will have value he laughed". I gotta give him credit on that one that was pretty funny and him and his friends were still laughing as I left.
I have not MDed the place yet, but I did find a great looking Tin inside the house. I quickly peered inside and it had candy in it. He explained to me that the lady that lived there died and no heirs could be found. Eventually the city took over the place and sold it to him at auction.
Anyways after a few more stories I leave needing to get home and start supper. When I got home and removed the candy out of this tin OMG OMG OMG stopped my heart nearly.
I will be following this post with pics of what is inside of this Tin along with a last post of a yard sale buy I made a few days before.

You reckon it was my good karma somehow or his bad karma with the joke?
