Rusty Gold

Our family watches American Pickers on the History Channel together. The two main guys go traveling throughout the US looking for all kinds of stuff to buy and then resell. They love old collectors items and anything weird. They call lots of treasures (old bikes, cars, signs, tin toys, etc) Rusty Gold!

Ross went for a run the other day and found an old wagon! We all went treasure hunting around it!

It was in our neighborhood, where they are building a new phase of houses, so Ross let the kids ride in the back of the truck through the dirt road!
They love that part.

Part of the wagon wheel... we found a company marking, and looked it up on-line. This wagon is at least a hundred years old.

Another wheel, which is now decor in my living room!! (I'll have to take a picture)
