    Umm no not legally but I doubt anyone would know or care.. it appears to be an old school camp where there were activities, like archery at noon, canoeing at 3, dinner at 6 etc....the building where the graffiti is is an old concrete bathroom, shower place. Most of it is overgrown... its kinda spooky and be a great place for a b rated horror flick...

    Abandoned boats are a HUGE dumping issue in the Pine Barrens. Pisses me off everytime I find a new one.

    This one showed up this year:

    The viaduct had some awesome looking graffitti, have it on video but apparently never uploaded it.

    In the LBJ Nat'l Grasslands the puppy and I were bush wacking for a few hours and I came across the normal stuff (shotgun shells, beer cans, etc.) but this caught my eye as cool. It looks to be some sort of latching mechanism for a gate (cattle graze all around these parts), a tractor, or an old truck. Any of you have a clue what this part could go to? No other parts were found around it - just this.

    The style of bolts used suggests automotive, the washer is attached to the bolt and they cut their own threads in a stamped hole.

    Parts of a mill or house in Roswell, GA. Was not expecting to find this building amongst some hiking trails.

    Reading the history of the area, many buildings were destroyed during the civil war because of ties to the confederacy.
