Strange things in the woods today....

[Retired Fire]

Today my Wife and I went back to our permission. We found farm equipment old and not so old. Take a look at the photos. I am not sure what the spike is. It has some sort of clamp or collar on it. If you know let me know. Also have you ever seen a Groundhog climb a tree? Me either until today! And we have yet to find any coins except a modern dime. I am not sure there is coinage here.

You're finding evidence of OLD human traffic.
That alone would keep me interested.
Congratulations on your hunt.

lets see--- a spike from an old harrow, a moldboard from a Tiger plow an old disc blade a broken point from a plow lay (international) and an old stove damper. scrap is about $100 a ton so Dig Dig.
just funning. ground hogs like trees, usually small ones because they have to get their arms agound them to climb. if they get too high I have seen them bend to the ground again. funny stuff
keep digging guys

Thanks so much. It all makes sense. Most of these were found far apart from one another along the edges of old fields and along irrigation ditches.
