    Lots of old coal mining equipment, like rail cars and brick coke ovens. Abandoned coal towns with old sawmill blades and haulage tracks still intact ( think rusted rollercoaster). couple of buck heads and an old glass bourbon bottle. But the coolest thing I've found is my deer!

    I didn't find this, but on the property that I hunt there have been a couple human skeletal remains found that were washed up from the Mississippi River.

    Found a balloon with a message attached to send it back to the kid. Don't remember where it was exactly but when we looked it up the balloon had traveled several hundred miles to get here. Some school project had set them loose.

    Arrowheads by far. Most of them I've found have been on gopher mounds. Guess they kick them up while digging. My buddy from work looks for them all the time when farmers plow their fields.

    I found the remains of an old still. I talked to the landowner (who's in his 60's) and he said it was his Grandpa's in the 1930's.
