Ok so I went back to the old abandoned house boat that is where I found my oldest coin. I figured it was worth the time to search the area. The floor is badly damaged and half the house is flooded. I spent some time in the dry areas but found nothing but wheat back pennies scattered on the floor and in what is left of the cabnits. I will post picture of the house boat, once I get a good camera. I saw the earring in the water and quickly grabbed it. That is when the adventure started, the board I was standing on broke and half my body feel through the floor. Needless to say I got soaked (and yes it is cold here too). being wet I figured now was my chance to go into the bedroom(the whole floor is underwater about 1 foot in bedroom). That is when i starting finding the nickels and the silver merc. Overall it was fun. I might regrett it tomorrow but for now I am happy.

You have to get into the water and feel around under the logs and rocks. That is where they stashed the REAL goodies! :read2:
