Day 302

Treasure hunting:

After supper we went down into the crawl space to see what we could find with our new metal detector. If someone wanted to hide their money or treasure that would have been a good place to do it. Right now it has a lot of junk down there, screen doors, glass, pieces of wood and pipe. There are little pieces of wood, and can you believe it trash. ;) But after digging around in the cold for about an hour we found several old nails, some wire, pipe, some foil and a piece of copper pipe. We will keep on working down there at least until the ground outside isn't frozen. If we keep it up we will have the crawl space cleaned up. The girls thought this might be a fun place to have a playhouse. We will also be able to use this to help us clean up the yard as we know there are lots of nails and things out there. Plus we make actually find some treasure - or at least a few coins.
