School was out and it was too cold for kids at the park around here, so I took advantage of that and hit a school and a park. I spend about 1 hour at each.

Of all my finds this one is worthy of being with my favorites. The first three shots are of my finds (trash and keepers) from a park. The Crucifix was down about 8” and it comes in at 3.3 dwt. It still has a sliver of wood stuck under the Jesus.

The last picture are the finds from the school, that cross is costume.
