      Hi Valerie, thank you so much for watching. I’m thinking you probably metal along the state’s extensive beaches. Best of luck in your treasure hunting adventures.

      @@relicrescueusa3803 Yes you would think that we do allot of beach metal detecting, but we dont, we go inland, we have a friend that allows us to metal detect on his property near Orange Springs where there was a old turpentine community, we have found some great things there over the years. I love your history on the old Palatka areas and Welaka as we have vacationed there and make day trips to fish, gator hunt, and to spend time on the St George. I love our Florida history, and your channel is so well done and interesting to watch.

      @@valerieg.1953 Many thanks, Valerie, sounds like you’re a true “died-in-the-wool” outdoor gal. Orange Springs has been on my radar for some time, because most of Palatka fled there when the Union occupied Palatka in 1864. The church is of particular interest. I may eventually approach the pastor about doing a walking tour. But for now I have, as they say, “A lot in my plate.” Best of luck in your treasure hunts.

      @@relicrescueusa3803 Yep, I am a avid outdoor gal, that's why I love Florida, hunting, fishing, relic hunting and horse back riding. Yes, there is much to be explored in Orange Springs, the church would be a great place for a video. Yes we have allot on our plates to, wish you the best on your treasure hunts also, if I come across a good place for your to do a video, I will let you know! Looking forward to your next program!

      I would be very interested in filming you and whoever you metal detect with if you get into something good. On another note, I would be interested in knowing if there are any family members of Confederate Captain J.J. Dickison who have letters or artifacts of his from the Civil War. I would also like to know the exact location of Confederate Captain Pearson’s foundry (originally a cotton gin), located in Orange Springs, during the Civil War. The foundry produced two cannons that ended up down in Tampa. It is somewhere near the bottling plant. I didn’t mean for this to sound like a homework assignment…it’s just in case you happen to hear of something. Many thanks…

      Hey Jessi, thank you so much…working on a history piece now, The Battle of Horse Landing (FL Civil War), this one is taking a while. You can also follow me on Tik Tok same name. Appreciate your interest.

    That's a great history lesson of something important, yet somewhat forgotten. Years ago in a vacant building which was to be torn down, I found four embossed, unopened 189O's pine tar bottles with the paper labels still on one side. I know these particular bottles were made for horse aid. Awesome video, subbed.

    As a Floridian I am interested in the history of the turpentine industry.
    What area are you in here?
    Thank you very much for any information. I am a research oriented archaeology student f.y.i.
    p.s. That old remnant gum in the pan is very cool !

      House of Solomon…thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. That property is in north Putnam County. I have a metal detecting video where we find some really cool relics from a pre-1900s turpentine village. Here is the link: Metal Detecting a North Florida Turpentine Village-1890s

    I would never know if i ran into that. Thanks for the history. We have a high tech devise in alabama for the spider webs. We call it a stick lol Walk holding it infront of you and you will never eat a spiderweb again lol

      Hey Clockwork Gnome, re: spiders, I have to be sensitive to those who are unaccustomed to the realities of striking a trail. Sticks, are indeed, a handy tool in the woods. Thank you for watching.

      Clockwork, believe me if you walked through a Banana Spider web you would know. The webs are thick n sticky for one. Two the spiders are freaking HUGE! Right about face level for me so I definitely carry the walk-in stick my daddy carved me long ago. Don't enter the woods without it. 🍌🕷️
