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.

EARLY 1700'S FRENCH TRADE HOE FOUND-LOST COLONIAL VILLAGE




O.K. BACK TO THE RELICS.  AFTER ALL, THAT 'S WHAT WE ARE HERE FOR.  THE COLONIAL RELIC HUNTER AND MYSELF WENT BACK TO THE LOST COLONIAL VILLAGE A FEW DAYS AGO.  WE HUNTED SOME OTHER AREAS WHERE WE HAD NOT HUNTED MUCH BEFORE.  SOME GREAT FINDS WERE MADE INCLUDING THIS EARLY 1700'S FRENCH TRADE HOE FOUND BY THE COLONIAL RELIC HUNTER.  AN EXCITING FIND TO US SINCE FRENCH TRADE ITEMS ARE RARE IN OUR AREA.  MOST OF THESE FRENCH PIECES PREDATE THE BRITISH DOMINANCE AFTER THE FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR.  WE SUSPECT THAT THE LOST COLONIAL VILLAGE MIGHT HAVE STARTED OUT AS A FRENCH OUTPOST SINCE I FOUND A FLOWERED FRENCH BUTTON THAT WILL BE A FUTURE BLOG ENTRY.  THE HAND WORK ON THIS HOE IS AMAZING AND THE COLONIAL RELIC HUNTER WILL POINT OUT ITS FRENCH CONSTRUCTION CLUES IN A FUTURE VIDEO.-THE TIME SEARCHER.
