Well for the past year i have been passing this beautiful old house and finally decided to stop and ask for permission to detect it. I had my 2 year old son with me so he was a nice ice breaker. I rang the doorbell and was greeted with a big smile from the lady of the house. I introduced myself and my son and told her the reason I was stopping was to find out the history of the house and property. She filled me in on the age and some history that she did know. House was built around 1870-1880 and was moved a few hundred feet from its original location on the property about 12 years ago. What's even better is there was an original plantation home on the property that burnt down a long time ago. The property has huge oak trees, original blacksmith shop, slave house and barn. I then mentioned that I metal detect as a hobby and asked if they would mind me detecting the property. She looked at me and said sure that would be fine you can come over anytime. I thanked her and told her I work in IT on computers and that if she ever had computer issues or question I would be happy to help. This looks like it will be an awesome spot!! What do you guys think?
