Centuries old , still has bloodstains.
A hunting party stopped, skinned and dressed deer or elk. This scraper fits comforably in the hand and you could clean hides all day with it. The roaming Ute indians broke camp (In the dark or after a first snow?) and left this precious tool behind. Probably never missed until they left.
Atlantic City, WY is a real town with a wonderful history tied to the area's several gold mines. Now it's mostly abandonned — but some folks still live there. Loved the drive through town!
We uncovered a big sink hole by one of the covers over a downstairs window when we were clearing the shrubs.
I was digging up dirt from the back into a wheelbarrow as fill when I found this old hide scraper. Really cool find – probably a bit older than the house.
This was taken this past summer, when I tagged along on a trip to Boston with my dad. While he spent the day at a convention of sorts, I wandered about the city on what was an unfortunately dreary day. The weather wasn't cooperating, so most of the time I was attempting to find a way to take photos without getting water droplets all over the lens. Those skyscrapers just look so massive, and make you feel so diminutive in comparison. I never did get the angle I really wanted to get, simply because I was frustrated (and sick, all the while). So this was my best from the day. I suppose it sort of does give that sense of smallness that I was talking about.
Soon I'll be returning to this city (less than a week!) and get to see my Bruins play. Can. Not. Wait. Camera will be in tow, beyond a doubt.
The upper part of this Toronto skyscraper reflects the the sky as a deep blue - given away by the small patches of cloud.
I've heard that newspapers are getting desperate for free content...but hilariously, I seem to have been picked up by USAToday.
