[attachment 53630 hollowtree1907.jpg]Hi folks:
The hollow tree in our magestic Stanley Park is most likely the most photograped landmark of the park.Willy,Rod.and I recently had luck detecting in the nearby grass fields.This big old tree is only a shadow of it's 1888 years,when the park started.Just the other day a tourist asked Willy if this was the famous Hollow tree that once was on the cover of National Geographic.Willy mentioned it was and the tourist mumbled he had a bigger tree in his own yard.
I hope to dig a few coins out of the nearby fields it certainly is old enough to be hiding a few oldies here and there.As most areas we know have been developed beyond recognition but just keep an eye open for some off beat areas.Trees and there roots are a sure thing for unearhing older coins,near the edges of the fields another good potential treasure area.
Once I have dug a old coin I stay there for may hunts a keeper may not show up the first few digs but I know from experience one or two will definitly be revealed.As the old saying goes a spot is really never hunted out,this has been proven right over and over.I like to hunt after a heavy rain and target the iffy signals,this method has been successfull.
Stanley park took a sucker punch last year and a heavy wind storm devasted the park,it looks like a clearcut as I write,the gale did 9 million in park damages.Parts of the seawall has tumbled onto the beach,magestic tress laden all over each other like toothpicks.Trails unrecognisable wild life in turmoil.
Well like most black clouds there is a silver lining in the futhure,the citizens and government have donated millions to rebuild the park.Thousands of trees have been ordered for the replant,yes it will take another 75 years to regrow,but it will be a magestic park for the genarations ahead to enjoy.And for the Hollow tree that was just growing by a thread it survived the hurricane completey unscathed.
