Nice Largie, Glass & Wood

[pa-dirt_nc-sand]

I logged 15,000 steps on Saturday walking between 3 cellar holes in the park woods. Had my eye on a couple spots that looked promising on lidar, but they didn’t pan out, so just pounded the old spots a bit more.

The oldest cellar hole 1850-1910 gave up the fatty, LC, tombac pocket knife, lamp parts and buttons. The wooden “brush” also came from this site. It was a surface find in the trash area. Nothing modern at this site. Could this be a hair brush that had wooded mini pegs that was saturated in balsa oil so it was preserved over 100 years? Seems unlikely, but…

That's a lot of steps Thad, plus the time spent at each site, you must have got an all-day pass from the wife
My left foot has been giving me a lot of pain lately, so that kind of hiking is out of the question.
Beautiful large cent, and a nice hair tonic bottle, probably the best bottle I've seen you post.

Thx Steve. I’m trying to average 10,000 steps a day in 2023. MDing helps as does my job. The rainy weather has put a dent in my average, trying to make up for it
