I managed to get out for about thirty minutes saturday to the site of an old ferry crossing to a Third Seminole War fort on the other side of the river.
I only found a rivet, and what I think is an old curb bit. The rivet is larger than one I have from Ft. Brooke, but is the same width. The one from Ft. Brooke has some leather in it, so I think the one from the ferry crossing was also for leather as opposed to canvas, etc.
The best thing I got was some shots of what's left of the old, military, wagon road. It's erroded pretty deep in some spots.
