Treasure Hunting with Rodney (Story 7)
As usual in our practice, an abandoned American classic car would be sitting on the roadside.

It was like a small "auto museum" in the wilderness.

We kept walking and observing through the forest on both sides of the trail. There were no outstanding landmarks in the area - that made it difficult to locate the site of a former big house. The best way to do it would be using GPS, but since I had never used one for a simple reason - I trust my trained eyes, I was confident that we soon would locate the spot.
My eyes did not let me down - I noticed a huge trunk of a half-broken tree 30 feet away from the road in the forest. At a closer look, it was indeed the first-growth tree - an indicator of the foundation and a cellar hole situated nearby.
Then we noticed the 19th century homestead vegetation all over the place, and then... we located a huge cellar hole!
