Hi all,
There are some county owned grounds near where I moved that at one time had a lot of activity including a poor farm, agricultural school, nursing school, childrens home, and an asylum for the chronically insane. Today nothing stands other than the children's home, and the rest of the 1000 plus acres has been designated park land.
I saw some photos showing remnants of the asylum and other structures, so thought to go on an exploratory mission and see what I could find. Good targets were sparse, but I did make a few cool finds. One such I thought might have been a piece of a shovel handle, but as it turns out it's actually a part of a WW1 bugle with the manufacturer and date on it! Also a whole albeit mangled compact(?) case, and another mystery item. To get the whole story, the video is here:
