The ground is green and lots of fresh air.
Hunted an area where an old railroad bridge used to be.
Found a lot of heavy iron and old tin cans. Then we came across a rare find! Thought it was a plant I.D tag wife cleaned it up
and found stamped across it "1906" cleaned a bit more noticed more writing. "Spokane Wash 1906 and the number #988"
Wife researched it and came across an old rail car that was sold in 1949 to Mr. Knight who turned that same rail car into a diner that is
located right here in Spokane and is still in business today. The rail car was built in 1906 and operated here in the pacific northwest.
Wife and I went to check out the diner we met the owner Vicki showed her the old rail car tag, she was amazed and we had a great lunch,
the diner was very impressive it feels like you've traveled back in time. We still don't know exactly what part of the car it came from.
We framed it and will be donating to Vicky our host at Knights Diner.
So, we reunited a piece lost more than 100 years ago as the train passed over a now gone bridge, back to where it belongs.
In other news I did find my 1st Washington silver quarter, plus 2 Mercs 1 Rosy and one Indian Head all in one day. (XP Deus- bottlecap prgm )
The wife struggled with her Gold Bug but has already found another gold ring this season, which is still young.
