Hey guys. I got up this morning thinking, "Why don't I just try around that old house next to mine that's abandoned and collapsing?" So I got my tools, and called up one of my dads' friends, because I was curious how old the house was. He told me it was built in 1916, and that there were several houses like it up and down my street about 90-ish years ago. Anyway I decided to buzz around it with my BH Fortune Hunter, and, well, I'll try to let the pictures tell the rest of the story...

Happy Hunting to all! :D :D :D
