First of all - WTF is with the mosquitos in Elgin?!!! Jeeze!
Hit a little park in Elgin and probably made a record with pennies. In total, about 6 bucks in clad. Enough to pay for my train ticket out there and back! I also found a MASSIVE bullet! Has anyone seen anything like this? A slug with a U on the bottom? Any idea how old or what kind this it? Also found the lead part of a bullet, some chunk of metal that looks gold and says 1885, and a "City of Elgin Transportation" token. Any idea when they used those tokens To cap it off, I walked back to Al's Cafe to have a beer and itch my mosquito bites and they had a fun horn band playing. I love Elgin.
Enjoy the pics! HH everyone!
