    My Collection Displayed

    I hope you all are having a nice long weekend (Canada had its week )
    I made a list of the things I've found and sent it to our local historical society. They were excited reading the list and want to display the finds. I'll take pictures when the display is all set up

    Very cool Drew. I'll admit I was a bit disappointed when I opened up this thread and saw no pictures.

    I brought my collection to the historical society today and told them what I knew about each item. They were thrilled! I already gave out a few business cards ...and found out who was in the picture/ambrotype that I dug last year.
    Sorry, I didn't try to mislead anyone....but I do like it when Jeff speaks French

    That is cool Drew. I should do the same before I get old and senile. My kids won't appreciate my old "junk" but the historical society will.
