A Strange Discovery

Speaking of yard work, I was digging up roots & fence posts out back yesterday when I unearthed (in a single shovelfull, but I'll take that as coincidence) a small serrated kitchen knife (with a rotted wooden handle) & a slightly rusty unfired .32 Smith & Wesson Long bullet.

I'm having a little problem with my usb ports (that, or maybe both my card readers).

Perfect - in my Trinidad backyard I have found, among other things, a shoe, multiple (empty) crack bags, various wires and circuitry, plumbing materials, and best of all, a rusted circular saw blade.

But I can't beat a bullet.

I found pieces of old clay piping when I dug some holes to plant bushes. At least I hope it was old piping!

It would be interesting to find some Civil War era artifacts.
