unknown roadside Picnic area today
couldn't settle on a spot today so I decided to follow my nose.
while driving I remembered a roadside pavilion I just found the owner to last saturday,
but he wasn't home, so I drove by today & got Permission.
Was told just don't cross the fence into the Game reserve
which was a no Brainer anyway.
Place was loaded with Glass, & trash
only one Memorial for a gas rebate.
while detecting there was a guy mowing grass in the game preserve,
I purposely let him see me & I waved with my digger, and he gave me a weird look,
later I see him on my side of the fence coming towards me & he stops on his mower & asks
What's your name ?
I had my headphones on & Pretended I Didn't hear & asked Huh ?
He repeated "What's your Name ? " so I told him who I was & where I was from.
he then asked "Do you know where you are ? "
I said "Yea Gettin' hot "
He gave me a confused look, so I decided to let him off the hook,
& said Yea I was over at the saw mill & Got permission
He then started taking about all the glass, & trash & said he thinks it was a dump,
but while mowing grass one day he found a small rubber purse with a buffalo & wheats in it.
and asked If I wanted him to mow that area for me. So I said yes, took a break till he mowed &
did that yet.
Still not anything worthwhile, Left with this pin or Belt buckle
as my only cool find ?
Not being ready to go home with just that, I remembered a spot DK mentioned he got
a few keepers one day we were hunting,
So I did U'eee & headed over there.

Yeah, can't tell you how many times I am in a park and someone starts the lawnmower up.
I just walk to the other side of the park.
I can relate to those types of places where it looks like they brought in fill dirt from the towm dump, I would probably hit it again anyway.... at least once more.
In the pic with the mason jar lids there is the square metal plate in the lower left. I found a similar looking piece and it said "time" and "alarm" on it. Could have been an alarm clock.
