Down by the river to pull out some old embossed brick. 2 are defects. I got 5 different ones. Hope you like. The Shultz is already sold! Washburn is I think the most valuable one.

The river is loaded with brick defects.. each area has a different ones. More brick then you can shake a stick at. Your tripping over them literally. My cat has cabin fever. It's what I call it. He gets stressed out when he can't go out. He gets these scabs on his tail. He flicks his tail and attacks it. They disappear come spring. I thought it was allergies, but it's all stress.

Pretty cool stuff. We renovated a bakery in Goderich Ontario that was built in 1834. All the brick timber was hand make. The bricks we found some had initials on them.Some had dates.
That's like the bakery 2 doors down from me. It has been there since the 1800's. They had the big wooden walk in fridge. I got a bunch of the glass doorknobs. I even made a cane.

When I was down by the river there was one spot that had the bright orange brick with the purple insides. They were very cool. They expanded the marina next to the area and changed it from public to private. I have no way to access that portion of the river from the south. I may head north and come back down along the river but if I hit any private property I will be at a dead end. The river has no shore at this point. Just rock cliff to deep water. I could get there with a kayak but I don't have one. Oh well.

I hope not. My dad is in his 90's and doesn't need any assistance. I have a hard time keeping up with him. He sure is quick being elderly and all. Thank you for the cane compliment. I posted a bunch of wood carvings and a walking stick I carved if your interested. All of the pictures in the thread are my carvings. Hope you like.

Here is a spot on the Hudson with a brick beach. I know there are better spots but they aren't open till may. It is a brick park I believe. I have seen pictures. I will post pictures when I do go. Also a picture of a dump in the woods. Loads of oyster shell all over the place. Don't see too much glass so. I will have to check it out another day.
