I was to the Doctor this AM
On the way home , I drove past one of the places I have permission to deer hunt
I see someone at the place next door
I tried to get permission to hunt that place years ago
But got turned down
But I knew the farm had been sold this winter
So I stopped in to ask to ask permission
Turns out a high school classmate bought the place
He said OK
We talked for a while
He was getting ready to tear the house down
In the garage I see lead ingots and loose Linotype on the floor
He said take it all , he has no use for any of it
So I used a scoop shovel to load 30 or so lb of lino and put 50 - 60 lb of ingots of unknown alloy in a bucket
Also found 4 sinker molds that maybe salvageable and 2 boolit molds that are junk
In a few days I will go back and look some more
As there is tons of interesting stuff there
And sometime in June the place will be torn down
All from just stopping in to get permission to hunt :-D:-D
