Hey all,
It's been a little while, hasn't it? Finally got something worth posting, so here goes.
(Sorry in advance, this is gonna be a bit long)
By my old neighborhood there are some woods that I still live to explore. Today, my Dad took me, my brothers, and my dog out there to do some raspberry pickin'. Last time we were up there, I found an old trash pit, so I decided if check it out after we got some raspberries.
Unfortunately, all the raspberries were gone, but I did get quite a haul from the pit! Last time we were there, it was just some miscellaneous old junk above ground, and looked like this:
But when we went there today, it looked like this!
Needless to say I was amazed. It doesn't look like anyone dug all this up, but I don't feel like it all just climbed out of the ground, either. But the hunt was on to find some awesome old stuff, and find stuff I did! Here are some pics from the site:
First find was this old toy gun, maybe 1 yard from the pile. It was still kinda buried, so I know that I found this one. First thing to resemble a gun I've found!
Saw these old shoe parts everywhere, I imagine these weren't cheap back then!
Some shiny blue glass a few yards from the main pile.
I think the hunt overall was pretty cool, and I did manage to bring some stuff home with me, I'm pretty happy with what I got. Here it is:
The gun, obliviously, some cool milk-colored bottles, and some weird electronic thing. Some closer pictures for ya:
The gun is surprisingly comfortable in the hand. It still needs some work, and another half, but I'll probably just clean off the rust and leave it. I think that it's pretty cool.
This bottle jumped out at me for some reason. It cleaned up nicely, and it says "POND'S" on the side. I like the old milky colored bottles, which is why I kept this.
Even though this little bottle has a huge chip in it, I decided to keep it. I'm glad I did, the patterns that the glass makes is really neat. Definitely a keeper, even though I'll have to make something to keep it from falling.
This thing is weird to me. It doesn't look like anything I've seen before. This was about 25-30 yards away from the pit/pile. Any ideas on this are welcome.
So that's it! Thanks for taking a look at this, and HH!
Oh, and the obligatory minifig pic.
