My son's first MD-ing experience!

My son is nearly seven. this past winter, we went to see National Treasure and you guessed it, he's hooked on 'treasure' hunting! We have some farms in the area that include old homestead farms long since plowed under.

We went to one field that I was told had a farmstead that years ago. We only MD-d for about an hour and found several 'hit's but over half seemed to be below the frost-line.

Here is what we did dig out though;

On the top is half a horseshoe from a heavy draft horse. From left to right below; a piece of steel strap, a clevis used in horse hitches at the turn of the century, a couple of square nails. The quarter is there just to show size.

My boy, Jed, is excited!
