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.

1770's BRITISH LIVERY BUTTON-LATEST FROM THE LOST COLONIAL VILLAGE


     HERE'S A 1770'S LIVERY BUTTON FROM THE LOT COLONIAL VILLAGE.  THIS WAS A DEEP ONE AT 14-16 INCHES.  WE HAVE SOME GREAT VIDEO THAT THE COLONIAL RELIC HUNTER SHOT WHEN I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO FIND THIS BUTTON.  NOTICE THE GOLD GILT STILL ON THE BUTTON.  IT LOOKS TO BE A BRASS BUTTON WITH LONDON MARKINGS.  THE LEFT SIDE SHOWS A CROWN WITH AN EAGLE PERCHED ON THE TOP OF IT. THE RIGHT SIDE SHOWS A MAILED FIST HOLDING A SWORD.  I LOVE BUTTONS LIKE THIS ONE.  ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS A PATTERN THAT I HAVE NOT FOUND BEFORE.  WE HOPE TO GET BACK TO THIS SITE IN THE NEAR FUTURE.  BUT, IT IS A 3 MILE HIKE IN THE WOODS OVER STEEP HILLS.  YES, I KNOW, COLONIAL RELIC HUNTER.  I SHOULD HAVE WORKED OUT MORE.  OK, I SAID THAT BEFORE I AM OUT THERE HUFFING AND PUFFING, TRYING TO KEEP UP.-THE TIME SEARCHER.
