We are always looking to find hidden gems in the pines, and today we went looking for one. I had noticed what appeared to be a gun club deep in the woods but I always throught it was on private property. Yesterday, while looking the aerials over again I went to the state tax website and discovered the area is owned by the town. So there was nothing I could do to not go there and check it out. I just had to.
It was an eerie damp morning as we arrived and received our first view of the place while standing in the overgrown driveway.
Looks like they had water and some sort of drain.
We were talking about who may have built it as we circled the building, and then Jessica started pointing to the chimney.
We had our answer. It appears to be P. M. B. and W. S. A. as well as W. J. F. 8/22/48
Heading back to the car I was about 20 feet from the road when I got caught in a snare and almost hit the ground. I removed it until I realized it was tagged. As Ben can tell you from experience, it is illegal to remove or damage them so I replaced it with Jessica telling me I should have left it alone in the first place. It appeared old to me and had been there a long time but I could be wrong. Anyway, it was marked with the initials JEG and numbered 800 084 576.
Sorry for the poor quality. My phone would not focus.
