Location is an area near Des Plaines IL

I think it might be a good spot...Homestead/ Farm was on the 1861 plat map and is gone in the 50's

It will be held on Sunday 11-15-09 Weather permitting of course.....

Sign up for it.....Below......I will PM the meeting place an Sat. Night......

UPDATE:      Meeting at 8:00am <<<<< Changed from 9:00am   

Woods hunting.... It's not that bad..... I was there on Monday checking it out.... Lot of old broken bottles. No major modern trash which is good.... Lot of area to cover.... I will PM all those below to the meeting place and then we will drive a short distance to the place....
We'll meet a a Dunkin Donuts for coffee before we head out...... I also have a Plan " B " which also is an old homestead from the 1861 map too.

Well my son knocked one of his front teeth loose tonight, so I'll most likely be taking him to the dentist tomorrow (if I can) even though it looks fine and I know there's nothing we can do right now.  Hope it doesn't turn gray or need to be pulled later.  Leave me a large cent for next weekend ;-)

Thanks for throwing the hunt together, Bob. Maybe we'll get another group hunt together and the Plan B location before the year is up?
