One of the first things I thought of when all this started (or rather when we first heard about it) was not only to hope we didn’t get *the* virus, but also that nobody in our family needed a Dr or the ER ward for any other reason.... hospitals aren’t a safe place to be now.

What a fabulous historic find! <br /><br />As one who does a lot of hiking in the wilderness, it is tough to imagine ceasing all hiking activity for fear that we divert resources fighting the pandemic. But I suppose I am being selfish! A dilemma to be sure. What a complex world we are living in!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this trip with us, as we might not get another one soon.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08490533253436208034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277742182540823151.post-28109075898982154972020-04-14T12:46:23.815-07:002020-04-14T12:46:23.815-07:00I agree.

My wife had a guess similar to yours. The odd thing is, if it's a nail, it's the sharp end sticking out of the bottle. My theory is the cork tended to get stuck down in the bottle, so the person drinking pushed a nail through from the "bottom" of the cork out. That would ensure the nail stayed in the cork, and also give the person something to grab on to, which would (in theory) make the cork easier to remove. The more drunk the person became, the more likely they were to stick the nail into their finger!!Spare Parts and Picshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17836657200014402380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277742182540823151.post-3437139903090069082020-04-14T12:27:54.885-07:002020-04-14T12:27:54.885-07:00Thanks for your comment, Jack.

The four pipes I found were very near the area with all the quartz. Perhaps the miners would drill into the rocks and insert these pipes into the holes, add a blasting cap, and see what they find! That's a total guess on my part.Spare Parts and Picshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17836657200014402380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277742182540823151.post-16215715236898448742020-04-14T12:15:29.066-07:002020-04-14T12:15:29.066-07:00Thanks.
