      The white ones are the provincial flower of Ontario Canada. It is illegal to pick them because they die if you do.,and they don't transplant well either!

    When the helicopter came over it reminded me of deer hunt when I was about 14 years old we were on top of a mountain in SW Virginia and out of no where came a fighter jet I swear I could have touched it. The crazy thing was we never heard it coming it scared us to death after we saw it then came the noise it was so loud but very cool. Great video as they always are.

    Congrats on the knee buckle, Brad, that's a pretty sweet find. Also, given the different sizes I've seen found, I've often wondered if "ox knobs" were also made in a size gradient for goats. I know "goat carts" were used and they were probably a menu item, so it seems likely to me there would have been knobbly bits for goat horns, as well. What think? As always, well presented and strewn with neat stuff to know, like don't bring home the stankey posies. ;-))

    Jumbo was or is maybe still the mascot of Tufts College. The tale of Tufts' official mascot, Jumbo the elephant, dates back to 1885. Circus showman P.T. Barnum was an early trustee and benefactor of Tufts and he donated the stuffed hide of Jumbo to the university. For 86 years, Jumbo stood in Barnum Hall and was a veritable mecca on campus. My grandfather graduated from Tufts in 1932 and had a great story about Jumbo and all the memorabilia. Once again Brad - Awesomeness from you and your adventures. PS - If you're ever interested in hearing the Jumbo story contact me privately. Cheers!!!

    In St Thomas, Ontario there is a life sized bronze replica of "Jumbo" the elephant, who was hit by a train. As the story goes he was protecting a smaller elephant called tiny Tim, and charged moving the steam locomotive. Jumbo was part of a traveling rail circus visiting in that day the small town of St Thomas. And as we know everything large is a Jumbo size.

    Out of curiosity, what do you do with the garbage you find? You do travel a good distance at a time. Here in Canada the coins and attracts are or give different signals, so your not quite sure what you are going to dig up. Gold ring as pull tabs and silver dollars a beer can. Alot of crap to get the collectables. Still great. Just asking.
