I like the buttons and the key.....amazing the door was still there and it worked. that sounds like a real good site, they are never worked out no matter how many times you go.

Thanks for all the replies everyone! Here is a pic of me in the front yard of the mansion on the very first hunt there. I talked to the owner and found out that the mansion was actually built in 1875 but the barn that is on the property was built in 1864. I will take some more pics of the house next time I go out there. Thanks again and HH!

Great find with the buttons and the Key!! The fact that the key still fit and worked in a door is very cool. Good hunting, Beale.
