Buried treasure
« on: June 11, 2021, 07:14:48 PM »
Did a remodel on our bathroom this week. I told the plumbers to keep an eye out for any gold or money hidden behind the walls. :lol_hitting:

No such luck. But they did find an old vanity mirror for a sun visor and an Autolite spark plug with a green string tied to it. Maybe somebody made a plumb bob? Any way, the house is 50 years old, so, that dates the vanity mirror. No plastic on it and it looks all metal and the glass seems fine. Just needs cleaned up.
If anyone needs an OEM spark plug for the vintage lawn mower give me a ring. I can fix you up! :)

Will the mirror make me look more handsome?

Taller?

Is the mirror magical?

When we built the RV garage/shop we had to remove 400 cu yds of dirt. I asked the father and excavation team how would I know if they found any gold? They said if I find the equipment parked and running and nobody was around that was a clue. All they found was the propane line which cost me money. ::)
