The most recent treasure: a kitschy little pot in the form of a shoe with a kitten curled around the toe.

We do have a little shrine on our mantle of the better finds. And even those are mostly rat skulls and medicine bottles.<br /><br />(Funny, I've been planning a blog post on Urban Archaeology....)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03932975112078606231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316581347076542906.post-52488567064768226312010-06-24T08:36:57.951-07:002010-06-24T08:36:57.951-07:00Great post, Christine!

If only the person who dropped it had a sheet of paper in a weather-proof bag attached to the dime outlining their name, occupation, why they dropped the dime, who their living relatives are so that I can return the dime with a little ceremony and flourish... ah there goes my imagination again!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07938196559124125578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316581347076542906.post-38831392566938039382010-06-23T11:34:18.117-07:002010-06-23T11:34:18.117-07:00What a fabulous find!

Now we're going to have to get you an Indiana Jones hat! :P When I find things like that in a garden, I always wish I could know its history, even though I know it's not possible. Whose pocket did it fall out of? How long has it been there? How did nobody find it before you?...Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6316581347076542906.post-5414687773846505032010-06-23T10:48:04.223-07:002010-06-23T10:48:04.223-07:00That's so cool!
