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.

HAPPY NEW YEAR-THE TIME MACHINE 1960


                                        

The last day of the year 2015 reminds me of one of my all-time favorite movies:  George Pal’s 1960 "The Time Machine”.  This is a film that I first saw on late night tv.  When I was a kid, I would sneak out to the living room of my parent’s house and turn the television on with the volume turned way down.  I would watch the old time movies on the independent tv stations before the massive cable television networks.  One night I stumbled upon the Time Machine movie.  I was totally captivated.  This film really sparked my interest in the concept of time travel. The trailer for the film is right below: 


Rod Taylor, the star of the film passed away early in 2015.  One of my biggest regrets is that I didn’t get an opportunity to interview him for our program.  He was a very nice guy and not some Hollywood phony.  This film is a classic that I screen every so often.  Thanks again Rod, We will miss you and this 1960 classic still inspires us.      

I hope all your ambitions for 2016 come true.  For the Time Searchers, we plan new adventures with great finds (we hope).  Thanks for your support of the Time Searchers program and blog-The Time Searcher.
