My son and I hit the old 164 acre farm spot again yesterday, and found a few neat things. I couldn't fit it in one post with all the pictures, so I'll post our other finds in a separate one.
We decided to head into the woods to have a look around. Some great rock formations, and dried up creeks back there that I'll have to check out later.
*Our first find was an animal skull, which I'm thinking is a deer. Who knows where the rest of the bones went?
*The farmer must have really enjoyed his liquor too, because we came across a spot were we found about 40 asst'd bottles just laying around the surface. Now I know why I keep digging up his missing keys. ;D I'm not sure what kind of booze all these are, but some said "wine" on them. Most said "4/5th quart" , and came in clear, brown, and green. Some had metal screw caps, and some had no threads on the bottles.
Can anyone identify what we found? Old?
*We were able to get the metal plates unlodged from where they had fused together with the oak tree. I'm assuming they are just farm related pieces. No hidden cache under them. Darn. >:(
*I also took some shots of an old fence that goes right through the center of some trees. I thought this was a pretty neat sight.
All in all a fun day with my son.
I'll put up more in a separate post.
Thanks,
MM

THERE IS A TURTLE on that there tree in the picture that you are holding your orange handled tool up to the tree. From the pic it looks worn but definitely looks like the turtle symbol meaning treasure that I have seen in numberous posts and books.

Sentinel,
What does a turtle symbol look like? You got me curious now.
I hope you're right, and I hope that turtle moves quickly. :D
