So I had to use some vacation days this week. I really had no plans to detect since it was going to be 90. I woke this morning and it was 60 so I figured as long as I'm gone before 12, it shouldn't be too bad. I left around 840 and got to my spot at 910. I've come here 5 times before looking for this cellar with no luck. I know on a map of 1888 its already gone and sits next to a road( that's gone) along a river. I decided that if I walk along the river, I might find it. The area has roots, rocks and sticks all over , tough to walk over ( even if you're not a clutz). So what happens next??! Within 5 minutes I trip , start to fall and ( so I don't crush it) let go of my detector. I look up to see it go flying into the river. I don't think I've run that fast in awhile. Luckily, the river is low and it got stuck on some rocks near the shore. Waterproof, yeah. It actually felt good when I put the headphones back on. I turned around and there was the road and the cellar! It was getting hot now and I said one hour and I'll come back. Within a minute ...a tombac. Not exciting but my first button in almost a month so that made my day. Then I got this loud hit and dug up this item that looked like a thick coat hanger. Next was a screamer that said 3 inches. After 6 inches , I figured it was a hoe or shovel but I saw this big , round thing. Pull it out, a HUGE Crotal bell. I'm happy and done. I say one more minute. I get another high hit. Its another wire thing except its connected to a piece of pottery. I think its a whale oil lamp base or something similar. You be the judge
