Several weeks ago, I posted about a big dump I'd come across near a cemetery. This afternoon I took a walk through the woods near the spot and found tons of smaller surface dumps. I didn't find much in tact, but there's probably a five or six acre area to comb through. One edge of the property runs along an old railroad line--about 2 miles away from the city of Saratoga Springs. Then the woods stretch toward the cemetery where the big dump is. But there's so much junk strewn all over the woods I could hardly walk a few feet without finding some more broken pieces. Anywho, here are some of the nice scraps I found--wish I had looked a few weeks ago before there were so many fresh leaves on the ground. I'll be taking another look when I get the chance.

Something from Troy, NY - looks like another water, haven't looked up what else it might be
