After looking all over the yard and the easier places to detect around my property I decided to head off into the brush down an old dirt trail. The walk was rather pleasant it was a nice warm day. After about twenty minutes I came to the creek that borders my land so I decided to follow it, further upstream I came to another old trail going over the stream, I decided to find some fallen trees and make a quick bridge just to check out the other side.
WOW!!!! stone foundation no more than 100 yards after crossing, then another, and another, I think there was about 6 also a massive tree surrounded by rocks. Rock piles everywhere, as a kid I remember my nokummos telling me those are cairns used as maps by tribes. others have told me they are just field stones piled up by oxen during the farming days.

The most valuable lesson I learned today was carry spare batteries AFTER 10 minutes and a couple finds my machine shut off leaving me to take the long road home WP_20160415_17_42_31_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_43_10_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_43_15_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_43_40_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_44_06_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_44_39_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_45_22_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_45_54_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_46_07_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_46_35_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_47_04_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_47_14_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_47_27_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_47_32_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_48_11_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_49_03_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_49_07_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_51_32_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_51_42_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_52_01_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_52_19_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_52_25_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_52_59_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_53_14_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_17_53_29_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_18_12_14_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_18_12_19_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_18_12_42_Pro.jpg WP_20160415_18_13_35_Pro.jpg
