While scuba diving in the Fla. inter-coastal, I found a torpedo bottle that was made in 1860....They used these bottles for "soda"...They put a rounded bottom on bottle so they would "finish the drink", so they say! Also found
a sloth bone while cave diving in Ocala.

My great-great grandfather's civil war diary, he was wounded at Gettysburg (he was a yankee). After he recovered, he went back to become a carpenter for the military and made coffins for fallen soldiers. One of the cutest stories was when he and a buddy left camp for a few hours and stole a fresh baked pie from a farmer's wife's kitchen window!

My 45 juke box is still sounding good. A shame there will be no place for it when I become a Villager frog.
