10 Worst, 10 Best

Wow! The old city dump (pre-1940's) is the absolute best site I have ever dug. I have found BUNCHES of good stuff there using my MXT and a little 5" Excelerator coil I would have put landfills in the best category. I've also done pretty well in an old railroad yard even though it's saturated with bits and pieces of iron and lead.
And I'd give a lot to get ANYWHERE in France at a WWI battle site, though it would be really dangerous.

let's see...this should be easy. but it's not! the 10 worst - 1. anywhere canslaw is present. bad sign. 2. any nazi concentration camp. 3. an old house site where they had a huge drunken party and started throwing beer cans. 4. to hunt anywhere near a huge group of inquisitive 6 year olds. 5. an artillery proving ground. 6. on active railroad tracks - with headphones on. that's a classic. 7. swampland. 8. anywhere the crime rate is in the double digits 9. an old skeet range or shooting range. 10. night hunting in black clothes on illegal land with 10 cops chasing after you with their 40 hell demon dogs and your're out of breath... and outta luck.

The school I live in was built circa 1920 and a near as I can tell was actually built in 3 sections. The Main Building was built in 1920 and the gymnasium was built later that year. In the early 1950's an addition was added to expand.[attachment 92592 HomeSchool.jpg]
As near as I can tell the building was used as a school until the late 1980's. After that the gym was used as a community center until the building fell into disrepair. After being vacant a few years the building was converted into 10 apartments.
I have been told that there were actually 2 playgrounds on this site, Before the addition the playground existed on the right side (east) of the main building where the parking lot now lies. After the 1950's it was relocated behind the new addition. Some of the concrete anchors are still evident from the newer play area.
The area behind the building is pretty trashy, whoever mows does just that, he mows everything in front of him. I have found, and are still finding, a huge amount of canslaw, nails and other misc junk. I'm getting through it though. It's good practice.
