We live in a rural area, i mean rural. The road to the mailbox is 1/4 mile away. haha Anyways when we first moved out there, there was alot of exploring to do as we started clearing the land. We found all sorts of things that had probably been there for years and years. Anyways, some of the things we found: old, rusted completely buried car, old medicine bottles and others too, coins, jewelry, and lots of bones. I assume these were dog, bird or deer bones, i hope so anyways. There used to be an old hunting grounds somewhere on our property according to one of our elder neighbors. I love to scour the property when time permits to look for stuff. Have you ever found anything on your property or land? What was it?? Or inside a home you bought??

I bought a house and started taken down old wall coverings and found a covered storage area, about the size of a safe. In it was old deeds to that house and two others next to it. The oldest one dated back to the original purchase of the land in 1899. It was cool to have that much history.

I would still love to buy an old house and find a stash of silver dollars tucked away in it somewhere :)

Wow that is really neat, i'm sure you would of rather found a safe with bonds or cash in it. I always hoped i'd find an old picture with the backing sealing in something but no luck so far. I bet that was cool checking out the old documents though, i love old stuff.

Did you hear the story about the guy who bought a picture for the frame at a flea market in Adamstown, PA and behind the pic was an original copy of the Constitution? Now thats a find!
