  • Today I metal detect and search a sheep farm in the Shenandoah Valley. This is the first time for me metal detecting this part of the farm. Starting out I do not know if there will be any coins, relics, or other silver or gold artifacts to find.
    I take my time and explain the metal detecting hobby, the history of the area, and other clues to the past to look for as I go along fields located along the Potomac river.
    About Aquachigger:
    I like to make videos that promote my lifestyle of outdoor adventure, metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed. I keep my RUclips "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.

      Hey have you heard anything about if someone found Kenny I seen one video that says hikers found human remains in an area that he was known to hike

    • @aquachigger
      @aquachigger  4 месяца назад +1

      I haven't heard, but if it was Kenny it would have been way up in the hills and probably in a shallow cave. They do find many bodies around there being so close to Vegas though.

      Ching, I was watching my sister dog in Mendon Mass. And at 4am. I went outside for a cigarette and I heard this loud noise that sounded like Satan coming from the center of the earth. I am 55 years old and never so frighten;ed in all my life. Well, I don't believe in supernatural stuff so I set out to find out what made ;thpe noise. It was a bob cat. look up Bobcat sounds and their is la fairly short; clip and they make a bunch of noises but all I heard was this 2 seconds or so,; scary ;noi=se. ;; I am so glad I found out what it was. I wondered if pit was kids, but plug in sounds of a bobcat and the 2 minute video at about 24 seconds and you will hear what I mean.

    I have a Chigg’s Army sticker on the back glass of my truck. Although poor, I’m proud to support Aquachigger the best I can. It’s cool to learn something every video and he’s a good man.

    Hey Beau.
    I think your brontosaurus is an escutcheon off of a drawer pull it’s just been broke up, but it looks like it was a large escutcheon off maybe from a large dresser drawer.
