Thought I would try the river since it was hot today. Goose poop everywhere. Bad idea.

They are demoing buildings everywhere for the new road. This is an old spot in the early days of Palatine, now Fairmont. The cats of the heavy equipment roll up the sod nicely. The street has constructions workers everywhere. I try to stay out of their way and so far they are putting up with my presence,

Not enough room for all the photos, but I hit four sites today. I gave way to some big equipment and kept moving around. I left most of the trash where I found it. One place the man was still moving and told me to go ahead and MD the place. He said don't worry about filling in the holes. If someone breaks their leg they can sue the state. They own it now(Emmit domain). This is what I brought home.

I got six wheat's, two mercury's and a copper fancy thingy. It has two metal loops in the back. It looks like a flat strap would go through it. It seems too big to wear.

Oh well, I mislabeled a mercury on the previous picture. 1942 &1917 No d.
