THINGS THAT GLOW IN THE DARK

[SHERMANVILLE ILLINOIS]

I live for the days I can go out and find something that connects to the area and period I am hunting.

Coins with the appropriate date; bottles found near an industrial site that were produced during the same period as the site; a shooting gallery duck from and amusement park that closed in the 40''s. The value of the item is unimportant. Those are the things that make my day.

These came from a forest preserve woods s/w of Chicago. Was checking out an area and found these two about 4 inches down. The area had other uses at another time, as the photo shows.

all have a good un.............

I don't think you should spend much time there.....you might start glowing in the dark!

Nice artifacts from the dawn of the nuclear age.
You'll probably never have to buy batteries for the Garrett again.
