I first spotted this thing in a line of 7 sidepins that ran up to the crest of a barge line on an old building about 5 years ago. The wires were still hot and ran to several other outbuildings on the property. Numerous attempts were made to contact the owners, but I never could locate them. One day the wires were cut, and soon after, all the buildings were moved to a site nearby - still no sign of persons about! I was back in the area recently and found a young dude fixing up the new yard. I asked him about them, and with the help of some "pizza fund" money, was able to convince him that he really did not want that "junk" cluttering up his building! These were once common to find around these parts. Nice to see one all virgin like this. I will leave just as found. |
