So I've been working on a few new permissions, and it just so happens that the wife came through for me! She ran into a former co-worker at the grocery who mentioned that they had recently moved into an old house....well, knowing she could probably get rid of me for a few hours set the wheels in motion...and voila!....1910 house here I come! It was only 15 minutes from our house and upon arriving, was concerned about the small-ish size of the yard. But I remembered that in the past I've had great luck with those small, postage stamp sized yards in small towns. I worked the curb strip for over 45 minutes, scoring my first 2 wheaties and 3 Hot Wheels cars. Moving to the front yard, which was barely twice the size of the curb strip, I netted the other 2 wheaties and my 1938 Merc...the wheats were 1919, 1939, 1950 and 1956...(you were right Lisa!)...it was at this time one of the neighborhood kids rolled up and asked what I was doing...I was taking pics of my Merc, and just told him I was looking for old stuff. I reached into my pouch and grabbed the 2 Hot Wheels that had 4 intact tires and gave'em to him and he sped off...ha. Ended up hunting 2 1/2 hours and saved some for next hunt, so don't ever be discouraged by those small yards! I have an 1850's house to hit 2moro that used to be a hotel LONG ago...so hopefully I'll strike silver again..Thanks for looking, Ddf..
