I was in a doctors office recently and they had a cool book called "Abandon Places".  It was one of those big, slick, hardbacked coffee table books full of photos.  Really interesting.

There's a bunch of those old one room school houses and churches in my neck of the woods many of them still standing. Mid 1800's to early 1900's. I've metal detected on a couple and found some pretty cool stuff. Crotal bells, horse shoes, large cents and so on. I found a softball tournament medal from 1930's at one site, just all kinds of stuff.

I really enjoy digging up history. It's just so cool seeing stuff that's a hundred years old for the first time in who knows how long ?
