Researchers say they solved a decades-old riddle this week by finding remnants of the stockade and therefore the site of a prison camp in York, Pennsylvania, that housed British soldiers for nearly two years during the American Revolutionary War.

The location of Camp Security was thought to have been on land acquired by the local government nearly a decade ago. On Monday, an archaeological team working there located what they believe to be the prison camp’s exterior security fence.

The camp housed more than 1,000 English, Scottish and Canadian privates and noncommissioned officers for 22 months during war, starting with a group of prisoners who arrived in 1781, four years after their surrender at Saratoga, New York.

The surf predictions look interesting.  The Treasure Coast surf is supposed to get bigger around Saturday and build to 6 - 9 feet by Tuesday.  That is a good size surf.  Notice that the wind Tuesday is supposed to be mostly north.  That is still a few days out, so it might not turn out exactly as predicted, but it is worth watching.  Hopefully the tides will remain pretty high when we get the bigger surf - if we actually do.

Good hunting,
