This white pine log had a nice big prize inside just like a boxe of Cracker Jack.  When I hit the metal I thought I had cut the head off of the nails.  I started to dig them out but wasn't able to budge them once I got a good hold.  I kept diging till I came to the angle iron and knew it was time to break out the chain saw. Hated to do it though, I was cutting 2" X 12" floor joist from the cant and that big chunk I had to take out pretty much ruined it for the joists.  This tree was growing along side a spring house on a farm and I imagine 30 or 40 years ago they decided to run power out for a light.  This thing was about 10" to 12"  inside of the tree.

I'd rather have a tattoo or one of those little magnifying glasses. ;D

Man Jeff, with eyes like that you don't need one of those little magnifying glasses.  Mrs McClain is one of our English teachers and I'll relay your regards. :D
