FRIDAYS FINDS

[K-Man]

I GOT BORED FRIDAY SO BEFORE I WENT TO WORK FOR 6 I WENT TO MY GRANDMA'S HOUSE TO MD BECAUSE SHE TOLD ME THERE USE TO BE A SLAUGHTER HOUSE THERE IN THE LATE 1800'S TO SOMETIME BEFORE 1935 WHEN IT BURNT TO THE GROUND. SO I DID SOME RESEARCH OR THE PLACE AND FOUND IT TO BE TRUE BUT BEFORE IT BURNT IT WAS CHANGED FROM A SLAUGHTER HOUSE TO A GROCERY STORE/SLAUGHTER HOUSE. SO I STARTED TO MD WASNT FINDING ANYTHING BUT A OLD COASTER AND A PIECE OF A TOY GUN. SO I DECIDED TO TRY AND REMEMBER WHERE I WAS DIGGING LAST YR WHERE I FOUND PIECES OF OLD BOTTLES AND ACTUALLY FOUND A COW AND PIG BONES WAS KINDA WEIRD. WELL I FOUND THE HOLE FROM LAST YR SO I STARTED DIGGING AND STARTED TO COME UP ON BURNT WOOD AND BRICK SO I GUESSING I FOUND WHERE THE PLACE USE TO STAND I STARTED TO GET EXCITE SO I DUG A LIL DEEPER AND I FOUND A PIECE OF THE AREAS HISTORY. I FOUND A BOTTLE THAT WAS BROKEN JUST ABOVE SOME WORDS. I WIPED THE DIRT AWAY FOUND IT TO SAY "MENOMINEE RIVER BREWING COMPANY" MENOMINEE MI I STARTED TO THINK THIS BOTTLE IT OLD SINCE THE BREWERY BURNT DOWN 1966 BUT MIGHT HAVE BEEN SHUT DOWN LONG BEFORE THAT STILL TRY TO FIND INFO BUT I DUG A LIL MORE AND FOUND ANOTHER BOTTLE PIECE WHIT WORDS THAT READ MENOMINEE BOTTLING COMPANY MENOMINEE MI AND IM STILL LOOKIN FOR INFO ON THAT BUT ALL IN ALL THOSE TO PIECES FROM THE AREAS HISTORY MADE MY DAY.

Not sure if you realised your caps lock is on

You have to take most of what this member says within a pinch of salt.

A 'trash pit' if that's what it is, is as you know is our gold. So I don't think he was putting down your finds, only trying in his weird way to explain them.

Keep checking that area, I'm sure more stuff will be there.
