RE: The story of an old well and its secrets - Part 2

in #story7 years ago

Do we ever have things easy now with running water to our houses!! I have never seen a well like this before but on a trip staying in an old cabin in the woods, we had to walk to the creek and get 5 galon pales of fresh water for usage and boil everything that was for drinking or cooking and all the lighting was oil lamps. It was a humbling experience!

Glad the silver sugar bowl was found, what a beauty! I would still consider that a treasure in the well. The rest of the stuff I'm not too sure! The old beer is kinda cool tho. Too bad there wasn't any gold coins! I think everyone sees an old well we think of ancient treasure and a hoard of coins hiding. Great story :)

We sure do. I also made these experiences quite a few times on my travels. Many countries around the world still do not have the same luxuries we do. And far from it! Brings you right back down to earth...

I was being a bit cheeky with the gold coins 😜. I see the sugar bowl didn't disappoint though. Glad to hear it!
