Kudzu garage

[carpetbagger]

Found this old Garage about 200 yards away from a main road, you would never know its there because of the kudzu forest that surrounds it. backed up to a deep creek bed, I found this marble? around some trash from the 50's?

Lots of great places to hunt around your way. Looks like you're finding them.

PD

Take your weed wacker with you next time and go at it. There must be plenty of stuff there just waiting to be found.

A weed whacker! Kudzu gonna laugh at that!!!. Kudzu grows so fast that you need to oil the bottom of the leaves so they won't burn when they grow across the road. Really though, if you have a winter cold enough and long enough Kudzu is a pretty good cover crop that cattle will eat. It should never have been planted below the Mason Dixon Line.

thanks PD, but I'm just getting started. It seems very hard to find someone to go hunting with you and give up their spots after all their work in research, so I'm trying to get some spots in my back pocket to kind of trade off with other MD'rs. Dont get me wrong love the hobby but it gets a little boring sometimes going alone.

Yep, being from SouthWest Georgia originally, I KNOW about the Kudzu too Nana and you are right WE HAVE IT ALL OVER THE PLACE DOWN THERE. It grows all over the pine trees, houses, shacks, etc. We have "Kudzu Jungles" in places!

Gads!

You don't know where that marble has been...may have snake pee on it or something worse.

Thanks nana, have no clue about it or its age just looks old. That stuff should have never been brought here from china or where-ever.

Thanks for that mental picture, I'll be back after I clean my lips with steel wool

On second thought If that steel wool was hiding in my cupboard I'd be back next week.
