We buried them on our farm and nobody living know they exist except him, me, and you folks. He is not to dig them up until he has a ten year old of his own to pass them on to, dearly hope I'm still around to enjoy that moment.<br /><br />I really like the old stuff, simply admiring an arrowhead gives me goosebumps thinking about the stories it could tell. How many "gee whiz" fish have them old lures caught? How many of them buffalo nickels was the only nickel some ol' sharecropper family had to their name?

LazyJ, your story about your Jim Beam jugs was so heart warming. Now that's a tradition worth saving. Thank you for sharing.<br />Bassy

Yeah, LT - this is about the 4th one I've seen since the changeover. Think they are about 2 weeks late on the resurrection thing, though.

Vintage fishing reels, some old lures and a few old outboards. My attempts to showcase the latter in my living room have been repeatedly thwarted by the lil woman.
