The Discovery

Today the well guys made a discovery when digging the trench for the water line. They uncovered an old bottle about 3-4 feet down and said there were more. After they left today, Kat and I went out and dug around and found some more "treasures". Old bottles with Vicks, White Hall, and Listerine imprints. Then there were some old brown bottles...maybe beer. It apparently was a dump of some sort and had been burned. Or, perhaps a house had burned and the bottles were in a cupboard.



We don't know the dates but do know they may be from late 1800's to mid 1900's. Cleaned up, we may get a dollar or two from them. Who knows....maybe we uncovered that rare bottle that is hard to find and worth a lot!


The grandkids will be excited to find that the treasure we found in the ground will be worth money to them! They love treasure maps and neat rocks.

There is, however, a promise of a greater treasure than any we could possibly find and that is the treasure we will receive in heaven. Keep your heart true and walk with the Lord. What He has waiting for us is greater than any treasure that can be found in this world.

Matthew 6:20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
