It would help to know where old houses were located and if the back of the properties intersected with the creek. Even if you don't know that, simply...

Seems to me perhaps the market is in a holding pattern right now. There was a boom in antiques 5-10 years ago as baby boomer's parents passed on or...

Oh, that's a nice one. Thanks, Michael. :) Chlorate Potash Tablets, it appears to say. I imagine these bottle could have held almost anything,...

Wow, how time flies. I didn't realize it had been over a month since I posted in this thread. I have been back there a few times since I last...
