There is a place in Little Rock that was built as a park
by tha WPA during tha depression. It is a rocky valley,
or a large gully. It isn’t anything special. It’s rock walls
and walkways with rock steps.
It was forgotten over tha years and rediscovered in tha
1990’s. At that time there was a big article in tha paper
and tha city cleared brush and trees so that tha old rock
work could be seen again and tha walkways could be
open to tha public.
It is now used as a bike and hiking path.
Tha WPA also built tha road above tha park. Here is an
old drainage pipe and retaining wall that was built by tha
WPA and it’s still in use today.
In this photo you can see tha main trail going to tha right.
There is another trail going up tha hill on tha left. There
are several of these with rock stairs at tha top. I wanted
to search around tha steps for coins.
Here is one of tha old rock stairs built by tha WPA.
On tha way up I dug this thingy and there was glass every
where. Next to it was most of an old coke bottle.
Then I found a very old, un-fired 357 magnum .
Then I found a real old American Eagle, un-fired 20 gauge,
single 0 buck, shot gun shell end.
That was about it. Not one coin.
It wasn’t raining, but tha bushes were still wet and it was
cold. My feet hurt form walkin on rocks and my battery was
runnin low.
Then I cut my finger on tha broken glass.
Nice thing about glass is it makes a nice clean cut. lol
I went to tha store and got me a jumbo hot dog and some
chips, with a pack of band aids.
After that I decided to do tha tot lots down at tha Arkie River.
This will be tha last time for a while because winter is settin
in.
Wasn’t much there, but I just wanted at check one last time
for tha year.
Before I left I had at check out tha volley ball court where I
found a gold ring one time.
Glad I checked. I found a huge silver ring. It has at be at
least a size 15.
I found a silver pig, a broken necklace and and a couple
of tiny pieces of jewelry and a couple of pieces of braclet.
Those two balls in tha lower right are BB’s I found for size.
Tha Vaquero is very sensitive to small stuff.
Here’s tha whole wad.
And like I said, “She Had a Big Hart”.
But tha Tabdog’s got it now… lol
Hope yaw are haven a good holiday season,
