I had a fun experience, the evening of August 29, 2016, meeting with my family to open my final delivery from the Mysterious Package Company!

My younger son bought a package deal for me & asked that we open the mailings as a family, to give us an excuse to get together & share an experience. I received 2 sets of documents, by mail, &, then, a final package--a wooden crate containing what you see, above. Your guess is as good as mine! Pretty, though!

Can't vouch for whether this machine actually delivers a relaxing experience, but it was used in spas and health clubs around the world, apparently...

During the Trimborn Farm art show some of the historical artifacts were gathered into one of the stalls of the old barn.

This treasure was found in a pawn shop in Tijuana, Mexico. I can only surmise that it is an artifact stolen from an Aztec temple or burial chamber and pawned off by the thief who had no idea of the value of what he had.

 

If you look at it carefully you’ll see that it depicts an alien astronaut seated in a command capsule at three different stages of space flight. While the material it’s made out of has not yet been analyzed I believe it to be a substance which does not naturally occur on Earth. Not gold or any other metal known to man, but some other light weight, plastic-like material.

 

What manner of creature might this “pilot” be? He, if it indeed is a “he,” seems content to endure the lengthy rigors of his flight. In the first two panels we see him surrounded by his crew of fellow creatures, by their expressions proud “boys,” if indeed they may be boys. In the third panel we see him contemplating what he will do once he is released from his small chamber.

a turning handle? or a branding iron? and a stove or pipe fitting of sorts, inside the old herring factory -- unclear what these items used to do, but completely clear that they were part of a whole way of life here...

In Thanjavur, it is the great living chola temples that attract the most attention, but amidst these temples, the Tanjore Palace or the Thanjavur Maratha Palace has managed to stand its ground and has managed to attract its share of visitors.

The Tanjore Palace, which is built in both Nayak and Maratha style architecture is famous for its library that contains archaic documents, a museum that contains artifacts from the yester era, rich designs and a bird’s eye view of the Brihadeeswara temple and the rest of the Thanjavur town.

The zone is full of mystery and dangerous legacies, and the "security people" might shoot before asking... so make your choices wisely, and use your instincts for survival, and react quickly!

I was attacked right here, and I still suffer the consequences... !

Artifacts from the remnants of one of a few actual houses in Sego Ghost Town in Grand County, Utah. It lies in the narrow, winding Sego Canyon, about 8.0 km north of Thompson Springs. Formerly an important eastern Utah coal mining town, Sego was inhabited about 1910–1955. The town is accessed via the grade of the Ballard & Thompson Railroad, a spur from the Denver and Rio Grande Western built by the founders of the town to transport the coal.

 

I'm certainly no archaeologist, but my take on these interesting pieces is as follows. Bottom Left: shard of what looks like a plate of perhaps teacup. Bottom Right: Pretty sure this is a piece of an old Mason Jar. The glass on top of those two seems to be a bit of window glass or perhaps due to its thickness a glass serving dish/plate. The other piece seems to be what is left of a glass milk bottle.

Old rusty items left over from the California gold rush era at North Bloomfield. North Bloomfield is an old ghost town that is part of the Malakoff Diggins State Historic Park. These particular artifacts were resting near and against an old miner's shack and it's rock foundation.

Some artifacts, including some knives, on display at the Sherlock Holmes Museum on Baker Street. This cabinet caught my eye as the second from the bottom is described as probably the kind used by Jack the Ripper.
