    Last Hunt at this Sidewalk Tearout

    Well, this project is coming to an end and will be done and fully sodded after tomorrow. I managed one last hunt in there today. Turned out to be a good one since I came away with a 1901 Barber Dime which I extracted from amongst some tree roots. Sorry to see this project completed, but the good news is another good project is about to start in an even older part of town.
