I had a Great day,
while i was out scouting an area to do some detecting I seen a yard sale sign that was out an old one lane rd. I thought what the heck,i might as well stop and see what they have and it might be a great way to get some local info.Wow was i glad that i did. The Old place is getting ready to be sold because the owner passed away and the family were wanting to just sale everything so they could get the farm ready for the sale. I was told that i was welcome to just go through the barn and look to see if i would be interested in anything and bring it out and they would price it,plus they had many other things sitting out,that they had already set out from the house and shed.
Anyway,I ended up staying for over 2 hours and bringing different things out and every piece that i showed came with a story of the use when they were kids and how times were back in the day.A neighbor came by and he got in on the stories and history of the past years of the area and it was just like being in school. I was just so relaxed with taking it all in,it was Awesome. I have as much fun talking history as i do bringing it home,so when the opportunity comes when you can bring antiques home with actual stories from the people that made the history is just perfect for me.
Some of my favorite finds that i got was a No: 40 Dazey Butter churn dated Feb.1922,Sessions Mantle Clock,very old hand plow,Milk Can,Crock pots, and than a knife collection,watch collection, lucky strike and tops cigarette tins and many other Great things.
Hope you enjoy,oh and I did get permission to Detect my Site that i was looking for after the holiday,plus picked up a job to find a class ring that has been lost for over 25 yrs which i told them that it would be my honor to look for it,free of charge.
I did ask permission to post this in this forum,I know it's not the Great Finds that are unearthed that We all dream about finding but it is finds that are very hard to get anymore and most of the stuff i got,i had to literly dig it out of the barn from years of storage.
