Nice looking place. Looks like someone still lives there. They let you dig up their yard? I bet there is some nice stuff to be found there.
Glad y'all got out and had a good day.

There is alot of land and easy digging. I could have dug most targets with my hand. Yes it is lived in and he invited us back every day if we wanted to. The home owner lived there since the 50's and was never detected. I can't wait to find the sweet spots.

I just noticed something.In the photos there is a vent running up the outside of the wall.What is that used for ? It doesent look very safe,I'd hate to see such an old historic place burn down ! I'm thinking the owner may want to look into a metalasbestas chimmny system.It is a little expencive but safe and should last a lifetime,in fact if you shop around some metalasbestas pipe has a lifetime warrenty.

Man o' man, that is a nice place to hunt for sure. Hope you all find more good stuff on the next outing, has to be way more there. Happy Hunting.also just because that donkey is mean does not mean he is a dumb or a smart a-- DONKEY......He could just be misunderstood. Saw a goat like that once. He was mean and that was that..Congrats...Buster......
