Some field find's and 1200 acre's to hunt....

To start off,my wife work's for the water co. and when anyone break's ground for sewer/water she pretty much hear's about it....she give's me a call the other day and said she just got me permission to hunt 1200 acre's....The cool part about it is the Mansion still standing on it was owned by George Washington's great,great nephew Colonel Lewis William Washington and one of John Brown's hostage's at Harper's Ferry.It's a historical site(only 2-3 acre's) so that leave's the rest to hunt on.The place is being built on and the Mansion is under renovation right now but I have plenty of time to swing.Here are a couple field find's close to the house,maybe an hour's dig.There were two other house's there before but the contractor's tore them down.Hell,I'm going to give it a shot,and it's only ten min.'s from the house.Gotta be at least one old coin still hanging around.HH!!

Wow congratulations on scoring such a great hunting spot. I can't imagine it gets much better that. I think some flowers, candy or other gesture of gratitude is due your wife.

Those are some neat relics by the way too.
