    Re: Mystery object??

    Looks like it would be used to pry something.
    I've been scanning my collection of Old Maps and posting them on my site.
    The maps show property owner's names, mining claims, parks, schools, etc.
    Use 'em if you can!

    Could it have been a hoof cleaner?

    Another killer ID.

    GREEN CHECK please
    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.
