Friday Tick Fest

[dkw]

I decided to hit a fallen in house near me yesterday. I didn't even know this house existed until recently. It's about 3/8 of mile from the nearest road and can't be seen. Most of the area around the house was inaccessible due to the brush and the remnants of the ice storm we had here in SW MO. That storm really put a hurt on hunting sites in the timber. I hunted the area in the foreground where it wasn't so brushy.

I only found one coin.

Here are the other targets I dug. A spoon head, 5 bullets, a snap with a train on the front, a flattened and holed piece of lead, and a ?.

Any ideas on the ?. It says Goldman Beckman Co.


I have permission at this spot anytime I care to go. I probably won't hit it again until late fall or early winter. Between the brush and the ticks(I've found 10 so far that found their mark) I just can't see going back anytime soon.

Your last item looks like a bracket to hang something on.

Kind of reminds me of a hammer bracket on a tool apron.

Watch the ticks!! I am on doxycycline right now thanks to one of the little monsters getting on me 2 weeks ago (and it was TINY). I got worried when a red ring about 4" in diameter appeared around the bite site. After the blood tests the Dr says I do NOT have Lyme, but if I get any flue like symptoms, come back for another blood test.

I want an IH!!!! Wheeties are as old as I have found so far!
