Chug tried hard, but he never did find the horse!

Chug And Red · Mar 25, 2014

Hi everyone, I hope you all are having a great week, and you all are doing good. The past few days that we got out have been so much fun, we are finding some unusual items, this park we are hitting is very large, and has a long history, looks like we will be going back as much as we can!

This post will have lots of pictures, here are our best finds so far!

Chug dug these two, he has now found 4 of them, two are broken, and the others are whole! They were used when canning stuff back in the mid 1800's, the milk glass protected food from the metal, preventing food poisoning!

I finally found one of my own, with most of it intact, it took me about 20 minutes to dig it up, it was about 6 inches down, and I used my knife to work around it til I could pull it out! I scared Chug when I yelled "I found one! I found one!"

Chug dug these two objects, we think the second item is from a wood stove, Chug also dug all this, Chugs First Harmonica Reed >>>

piece of a water hose

walking weather sensor

huge square spike,

Chug also scored his first ring of the year!

He was really lucky the past few days,

there are remnants of square nails left in this shoe!

LOL that's my Chug! He never did find the horse or other three shoes!

He also found this beautiful baby which was several inches down, bottom side up!

it's Bascal, they were made in the late 40's early 50's. And the coup de graw,

this came up a solid silver tone on his machine, it was screaming so loud I could hear it from at least 15 feet away! The pennies keep on showing up, Chug found a few more Wheaties, I'm also doing good penny wise, usually I don't find much clad.

I keep finding ear stretchers, this is my newest one.

yep, another spoon, this one is heavy, and from Vietnam!

these nails were in a hole along with what looked like a mortar, maybe an old foundation? I also found my oldest spoon yet, this took me a good 15 or 20 minutes to dig out, it is so fragile, and I didn't want to leave any behind!

oh, and before I forget, Chug found this little item,

someone's crack pipe. And I scored some silver,

These are great to carry with you, that way you have a place for your more fragile items!

my latest pieces, Chug loves all of them! I hope you enjoyed reading and checking out our pictures, take care everyone and stay safe, have a great night and HH! Red

What a nice assortment of stuff - still at least a month til our weather allows hunting, making me really envious. Those darn canning lids - my house was build in 1960 but the back yard is littered with them - and they sound SO good on my machine. The silver earring is nice - I have rarely seen that style in a stud earring.
