While searching for new sites, I decided to
go over the Department of transportation maps from 1946 again
and today I decided on this former Grove

so I ran over and started looking for the property owner.
seemed everywhere I drove I saw this woman mowing grass.
first at the cemetery, then at the driveway to the owner of the properties house So I
introduced myself & She gave me permission.
saying there was rumor this was a church grove for this 1831 Church

before I Left she said she would like to see what I Find,
so I Promised her I'd be back & headed over

went back over showed her my finds, told her I Couldn't believe
I didn't find any silver, but would be back between
late fall & early Spring to try again.
Have to wait for the poison to die off.

Not sure IF I Got any sap on me or not.
but was sweating & Rubbing my eyes allot
which worried me enough to quit early

Looks like a good spot, Carry A rag to wipe your eyes when you are around posion Ivy. If you get it on your hands or arms put clorox on it, it will go away quick.
