a old post card that I found down in my basement on the sill plate of my old home back in Wisconsin built in 1905, the sill plate is what the house sits on. Click on photos to enlarge!

Loved that old home, found my first coin in the front yard when I finally decided to take up Metal Detecting, a 1919 wheatie, I have never looked back!

I worked for twenty years getting that old home to where Ray wanted it, new garage, new roof, I planted the tree and evergreens in front of the porch, I rebuilt the front porch using the old wood and adding where I had to

As the years moved on I found 11 ih's in my front yard as I got better with my detectors, XLT, MXT then the Explorer, when the housing market started to go bad I was warn to get out Ray while you can by the builders who knew what was going on with the banks, they knew and gave me a heads up and I'm thankful.

Craig made a innocent post one night and I jumped, the rest is history, sold that old beautiful home to a young family that love it to this day, I have left my mark in this world and that young couple with the tiny tot are happy and I'm happy for them
