hey guys
hey dog dog i understand uh
welcomes are in order you're in nova
scotia now yes
the eagles have landed 14 but here
one day after their arrival in nova
scotia but while still prevented from
venturing out
to district quarantine measures brothers
rick
and marty laguna along with alex laguna
and peter fernetti call into the oak
island war room
for a meeting with other members of
their team they are eager to discuss
several of the search and discovery
operations planned for the week ahead
well we uh we've been kind of regrouping
here after the c1 dive
but uh laird has some updates on the
work intended for lot 15. that'd be
great
to know about that yeah actually the the
lead archaeologist is going to be david
mcginnis a
very experienced archaeologist name
might sound familiar related to uh
daniel mcginnis
wow direct descendant a direct
descendant yeah
yeah he's agreed to uh do the
investigations in lot 15
and he'll be uh aided by aaron taylor
and we're really looking forward to what
david's going to come up with with this
uh
mysterious feature that we have up there
boy
laird the believer i'll tell you
it is curious though it's two rock walls
that just lead into the side of the hill
last spring doug crawl did a very
thorough search of the documents in dan
blankenship's basement
and he found two old maps one by fred
nolan
who was a surveyor and one called the
behringer survey from 1988
both indicated the possibility of a
tunnel near the feature on lot 15
both of them coming from the money pit
north of the swamp
the behringer survey also indicated a
possible tunnel
near c1 in the money pit if these
tunnels exist
could they be connected could it be a
possible back door to the money pit
who knows it sounds like you got a
downright brain trust there laird i mean
uh let us know what it is i will yeah no
i'm excited
i've got my fingers crossed it is some
kind of uh
cavity or passage leading towards the
money pit area
that's that's my hope is it worth
investigating absolutely
let's see what the answers are another
thing that's uh taking shape guys is
furthering the exploration of the swamp
and dr spooner is ready to follow up on
that with some
scans of the swamp so yeah just to fill
in on what
i have planned in the swamp what we're
doing is we're
running a new kind of survey it allows
us to pound down
a ways into that swamp sediment and
to see if we can resolve that feature in
the swamp
so that's what i'm up to in the next
week week or two great
oh holy crow this stick will tell me
when that stone was placed
you date the stick you know when that
happened because of the incredible finds
made in the oak island swamp
last year i'm very confident we're
looking at 1680 to 1700
that that disturbance took place
including evidence
that significant human activity took
place in the area dubbed
eye of the swamp during the late 17th
century
along with proof that the massive
pavestone area the team unearthed
was most likely constructed more than
800 years ago
the oak island team is eager to continue
their investigation of the area
but now on a much larger scale
one of the team's first targets is an
anomaly that dr
ian spooner first spotted in a series of
aerial photographs
taken nearly 100 years ago and located
on the southeastern edge of the
mysterious triangle-shaped swamp
great i'm glad i'm in quarantine
i'm looking forward to it personally
it's intriguing because it's only 10
feet down
and this is the one location where if
there are going to be artifacts
this is the place where they will be yes
and it's in front of the paved area so
that's really i think as much my focus
in terms of of trying to understand
what's going on there good
and then doug filled me in on the story
of a shaft in that location is that
correct
yeah when fred drained the swamp he
spotted the remains of an old shaft
he didn't say exactly where but this
spot that ian has recognized identified
may be it yeah fred obviously
saw something and recorded it and now
this work will confirm or
deny it yeah this song's well worth
doing sounds great
all right guys that's all we have from
here for now we'll uh we'll see in two
weeks
we all knew it was going to be an
abbreviated year but everybody stepped
up
without them playing the groundwork for
the year
given the fact that we were late in
being able to
to come into the country i think we we
would be behind the eight ball
the guys did an incredible job of
setting the stage for the year's effort
if you need anything while you're in
isolation just uh call
okay oh can we do that figure it out
while we're gone that'd be great
we'll be there with a bricks truck in 14
days
take care guys
you
