I have been fascinated with the past all my life. Although time travel is not possible (at least, as far as I know), we can still experience it through what I call "relics of the fourth dimension." Namely, as the old saying goes, "time marches on." We can't travel in the fourth dimension, except going forward in the present, but we can follow the trail of the fourth dimension. Along the way, people lose or discard items from their being. These relics are unintentional time capsules that give us as glimpse into their lives. Here on The Time Searchers blog, I will show some relics of the past that I have run across in our present. Sometimes when I am out on a relic hunt with the Colonial Relic Hunter, we know that we are not alone. There is more than just relics at these historical sites. Indeed, it could be said that there is a portal to the past, perhaps to another dimension, where that which once was, still is. A place where the real consorts with the shadows; the present fuses with the past, on Time Searchers: Ghost Relics.

Plunder of the Sun - 1953

Here's a link to the trailer for an underrated film.  It's Plunder of the Sun from 1953.  Produced by John Wayne's Production company, BATJAC.  Glenn Ford starts as Al Colby, a down and out American in Central America who becomes involved in a search for priceless Zapotecan artifacts.

Along the way, Glenn Ford's character is approached by others searching for the treasures.  They tell him that he can trust them and it would be better if they teamed up and became partners.  Despite his jaded attitude, Al Colby learns life lessons the hard way.  These hard way lessons are the same ones the Time Searchers learned in our search for relics.  That's why I like this film so much.
