This sure brings up memories. I have been interested on antiques since they were considered junk. My great Aunt who has long past used to baby sit me as a youngster. When my dad would go to work her and I would grab my wagon and go back to our dump on the back of our property and find a “prize” to bring back to the house. That way my dad and I would have something to do at night when he got home. (Take it back to the dump). Now almost 30 years later we are working on a tractor and he remembers throwing a loop drawbar and a PTO cover in the dump back in the 50’s. So for two weeks, me dad and my boys spent digging through all those “antiques” and low and behold we found them. Had a great time doing it also, lots of memories and stories to pass the time. Mostly dad’s stories of how stupid this is. Now my boys can’t believe all this great stuff was thrown away. My folks watch my children after school until I get home from work, when I stopped to pick them up mom told me to grab a camera and head out back. Figured dad and the boys were doing something with the tractor or such and to my amassment there was dad and my youngest one, toting a wagon full of “antiques” back to the dump. Seems my boy had gotten home before grandpa that day and went and found some stuff for the two of them to work on for the day. Looks like another generation started.
