Allen and I went today to Sanborn and what we call the Gutshall Homestead. He took his metal detector and we spent all day digging up stuff. Horseshoes, treadle machine seed support, pick ax head, some sort of what we think are iron wagon rope tie downs or something similar. Everything good was buried except one bottle we found. It was a lot of fun and quite hot. Lots of sweating. Tired from all the ups and downs and digging. Iphone
