I read the entire earlier thread (all 13 pages). I called in and postponed a meeting I had because I didn't want to stop reading. Amazing!!!

Glad your back,no other post held my attention like your last dig. I went down in the country and crawled under everything I didn't think would fall on me. Knowing my grandfather was a carpenter I didn't expect to find much,and that was the result. I do have a renewed respect for spiders,and snakes.

Hey Guys, it's good to see you all on here. My last find really brought a lot of joy back into our lives when we were really down dealing with our little Lea being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. She is doing great . It hasn't slowed her down at all. My first find was what really got me into collecting old mobiloil stuff. If you want to check that one out it was called "Check out my gargoyle Mobiloil cabinets" . Maybe Tom can post the link to that one. Thanks for all the post. I can't wait to start digging again.....lol
