Beginning of the Holiday Weekend

We started our Labor Day Weekend today. Went out boating and fishing. Didn't catch anything but the company was good.

Taking a Break

I always knew house cleaning would kill me. I can't believe this one. Blew the breaker for sure. The extension cord just fell apart in my hand.

Taking a break so my heart stops beating so fast.

Hey Benny

That little bottle we found on Crab Point
When we went Treasure Hunting
Turns out to be a Treasure

Robert Turlington's
Balsam
The King's Patent

If you look at the bottom you will see
The PONTIL which is where it was broken
off the blowing rod when the bottle was blown

If you look at the pictures for comparison
It looks like between 1800-1835
And it is bluish in color
