Welcome buddy. Keep at r' and enjoy the ride. It"s not a competition or a race. Some seasons will be better than others. If you are really hot to find some razzle dazzle stuff stuff do some research. Hit your local library.

So here is that weird Mason jar I found. I was cleaning out upper surface of a cellar hole and tossed some med. size barrel rings, square wire, older scrap iron. Walking on top of this area a few times..So put atpro 2 work an got a silver-lead signal. As diggin an pin pointin w/ carrot found 1/2 gal mason jar bottom turned sideways, in carefully getting it out was suprised , it had a crumbling wire warped around material of sorts holding the glass lid on. I didn't take the lid off then, there was about 2 1/2 cups of beige whitish Honey. At home I took the top off sweat sweat smell, in probing the mixture with a chop stick ewe i seen fur.. Nope a small bird. Washing it out an draining outside you could see it was a bird, taking to the landry sink,spray 9 an rinsing it out, lots of hot water and i heard a plop an, this bullet came out, was stuck in that bottom edge, inside....that atpro picked up the i believe was a 22 size round. The jar i believe was made in 1890-1910 area ...
PLEASE ANY NEW IFO OR IDEAS WOULD BE APRECIATED ON THE "WHY " its buried with this concoction
.... by the way I love red and my favorite # is 7. Thankyou for viewing.

Maybe some kid shot a bird, felt bad about it and buried it?

KCM yes i could see that ...some pioneer mother says the honey will make it feel better son or experiment on mumification. My nefu found out the Chinese in olden times would bury a relative {i don't know how they would have made that decision on chosing to do so } Google eh. The coffin was made of stone and filled with honey then aged for 100 or so years. Then open it up and cut the person up into small cube sized pieces to sell?- give away as Candy .So Gross, sic
I perfer your version
