Old Plantation

[shanegalang]

Hi Everyone,
After gustov and Ike we are finally back full swing around here. I got permission today to hunt on an old plantation near the mississippi. There are still the front porch post standing tho from what I gather the place burned down in the early 1800s. Looks like all original ground on the site. What do you think I may find? Any thoughts?

Hey Shane,
Glad to hear every things getting back to normal. If that plantation is around town or maybe north of town, there's probably a lot of civil war, and earlier, artifacts. Either way, I say your gonna find a lot of good times around that place. Enjoy and be careful

You could have invited your brother to help.

I found the most & best stuff hunting near one of the caretaker houses, by the rear door. Have fun! I wish my friend who lives on the grounds of a plantation built in the early 1800's would call me! He says he found slave chains so I know I'll get something. Ring phone, ring!

Hey Ricky........i posted this and luck would have it I was unable to get out to that site yet. I have also got some good info. on another plantation site in Port Allen that I need to hit one day. I need help, wish someone would go out hunting with me!

I should have some free time in about three weeks. Have plenty of detecting equipment, and really enjoy hunting. My hunting partner is Tensas, so if you want to do a joint hunt, let us know.

Shane,

Sorry I haven't responded to this yet, I just saw it tonight. But I'd love to go. I haven't had a chance to get out much here lately, the wifey has become a slave driver since the storm. Cut up those tree's, replace that roof, replace those broken windows, replace,repair,replace, DAMN.....I'm ready to stand up and tell her I'm tired of all the work and that I'm going dirt fishin, but I think about the last time that I did that, and I sit right back down.

When ever your ready to go, send me a PM or give me a call. I'll send you a message with my phone number in a little bit.

Hey Shane, I think you will have lots of fun doing old plantations. As someone mentioned, keep tuned in for civil war relics. The coins you find will be older than the ones in the BREC parks. I am very envious of your good fortune. Ron.
