Greetings All,
figured Halloween would be a good day to head out to an island that was used to isolate
smallpox & TB victims, & quarantine Immigrants, from about 1750.
after a lot of bushwhacking, found a large foundation, inside, several rows of smaller stone piles.
evidence of a prior archeaologic dig. found nothing inside the foundation :P
but around the outside, found a few relics, odd iron hook tool, about 7", anyone seen one?
Also what i believe is a bronze 'Dowledge', used as a washer on early artillery carriage wheels.
why this would be on the island is a mystery. 3.2 lbs
Old lead round, about .42 cal, looks like 2 rings, anyone familiar?
brass buckle.
2 jewelery pieces, one steel chain with brass beads, one carved stone on steel chain.
Also came home with 4 ticks! thought they were dormant by this time.
Just for Halloween i'm including an image that appeared after taking a photo of a ceremony
that we conducted from an old wiccan spell book I found, put so much effort into the ceremony I wanted to record it. drew a protective circle with a staff, brushed out the area with a spruce bough, asked for blessings from the earth, offered bread, beer, & salt. correct candles, etc.
A grinning Imp appears in one frame.
so clear to me, I can see his nostrils, no photoshop tricks here. Totally clear starry night, no fog.
Thanks for looking! HH
