    Got me a chunky Indian head. Just like its new owner. :wiggle:

    I took a vacation day from work today and what better way to spend it then out diggin in the dirt. I went to a great old stand by spot. Turned up the sensitivity, slowed my swing way down and listened for those silent whispers. I was rewarded for my efforts. First neat dig and best of the day...

    A great map site. You can overlay old maps on present day maps. Very cool.

    When the site pops up clik on the search tab. Type in your city (township) and choose your state. Then clik the search button. A selection of maps will appear. Clik on one of the maps. Make sure its a full old map or you will not be able to use the overlay feature. Once your map appears...

    Let me tell ya about the guy I ran into when I found the Walker...

    ...ok, so I go door knocking at this old home that has one of those "been in the same family for over 100 years" consumer power signs. The lady says that she is not the owner and that he lives across the street. So I ask her if he gives me the ok would she mind if I detected there. She says no...

    Ok, this token has me fascinated for some reason.. right above the bed on the token it reads.."John Gilbert Honeymoon Bed". I googled that and this is

    John Gilbert was a famous silent movie star who did a movie where he beds many ladies. Here is a pic I found from the ad for the movie... This token is giving me more questions than answers. I like it. [attachment 198275 gilbert10.jpg]

    Found this neat token thingy at an old home site today. Was the only cool thing found there.

    Its funny because the place I found it was known back in the day as "Cat Corners". A place of ill repute. This token kinda lends itself to this a bit, in a round about way. I like the Lucky Dog, with the weiner dog around the horse shoe. Cool token I think. You can see I scratched where...
