Found kids cache of old bottles and new spot for cache hunters

I don't see people talking about looking UP very often. Well start looking UP. I was walking down the path at a park close to me when I started looking up cause of the rain and noticed some sticks nailed into a bunch of trees. Well it looks like it was a huge tree house suspended by at least 5-6 trees. Some of the ladder boards go 25 feet. Pretty impressive. Well it has been torn down and there are hundreds of nails. Enough to build a ark or 2. I cranked down the sensitivity and been going over the area. Probably at least 20 nails per square foot, no joke.

So I got behind the trees and proceeded to dig first solid number. Ended up being old small aluminum muffin tin. While digging this aluminum I hit a chunk of glass. Broken but looked like a chunk of jar. Proceeded to keep checking hole with pinpointer and pulled 4-5 nails in a 3x3inch hole and hit more glass with my screwdriver. This one sounded more solid. It was a old clear ink jar. It had a bunch of old black beatles and small snail shells that were brittle to touch. So I start steadily poking around and end up pulling 5 fully intact bottles. No money yet but I have a good feeling about this spot. The spot I dug them out was about 2-3 feet on the rear of the trees where people would not have seen him. The park has a lot of old tall pines with potential for more hidden treasure. Also a few of the trees are dead and appear to be hollow. I can see knot holes up where the tree house would have been. My wife said one of them hollow trees looks like it would have made for bank but how would the kid get change back out. Or beter yet me. No high TIDs coming form the tree just -8-6.

One perfume, no lid, with 4 and a circle around it on the bottom. About the size of a pack of cigs 100s. Lol

One ink with no cork. Sheaffers SKIRP written on bottom. 2 oz

One Coca-Cola shaped with a wide mouth no long neck. Shorter than coke bottle looks like spice shaker of some type with wide screw top lid. 1415-c on bottom.

One 3 1/2 medicine Owens. Plastic cap

One tall parsons ammonia co. Design patent 10811J. Three nubs on top to keep it closed somehow.

Make sure your not discriminating glass. Lol

Make sure to look up every once in a while also.

I will try and post pics.

I know these aren't worth much but finding full pieces of glass under ground is pretty cool.
