    Best Three Years ..Finds/Displays/Displays to Build

    Folks it's going on three years for me now & with time has come change.Since I've moved to our new home I've been trying to get my stuff set up this time with a little description.When time allows I work on it.I'm getting close but still have a few more displays I would like to build those being my....... favorites/finds,indian pottery,& bottles shown at the begining of this post.My latest was a colonial shard display which once I got into it found out I had to cut it short just to much of it for me & would not leave me no room for others. Anyway here's how it's going...enjoy.
    Take Care,
    Pete,

    Wanted to share this documentary about Colonial N.C.. I really enjoyed it & it explains alot about the region here on the coast.Really sums up what I've come to learn about my area in a Movie/ Video.Really brings it to life when you've been & found these sites such as mentioned
    http://video.unctv.org/video/2149619983/#
    Take Care,
    Pete,

    Has to be one of the best and displayed collections I have ever seen.. Awesome job.. The only thing I saw that I would change is in the first pic, I would move the larger bottles to the back.. I saw a round iron ring with a piece of metal attached to it, I have one just like it.. Always wondered if it's a wagon piece?? Great job you've done..

    It's like a little museum How much is the entrance fee? or is it by donation
    Really well done
    If you don't mind me saying though; do something to preserve those iron pieces, I've left things and watched them continue to degrade

    Fee=1 beer & willing to talk.(cheap rates)
    Iron= I know & is why I don't even bring it home anymore,rather leave it buried of course Not much luck with it here most of the time it's in a egg shell state unless really solid thick built.Nothing inside of it if cleaned to even save(no solid iron left to it)
    Thanks,
    Take Care,

    Clearly, you love the relics ....
    I like the small table with glass and many of the findings, perhaps the best for me would be the sword.
