At a very old logging camp location I found a file in great shape. I sent it to a past member here who builds things in the old ways. I wondered at the guy who stood over saw blades all day long using it to sharpen the next days whip saws.
A shot behind the ear was mentioned. I recall a longtime ago walking behind a friend, heading into the timber for an afternoon deer hunt. He stepped over a tree in front of me, rifle slung over his shoulder, when the brush caught his rifle shoulder stock and drug it back so the barrel end hit him in the back of the head.
It didn’t go off and didn’t hit him hard but sure showed me a fast lesson.

I could go on for hours on what my brother and I found as kids while trapping. I found 3 shotguns in the Hackensack river. They were muddy, but cleaned up and worked fine. Found plenty of party areas in the woods. we would take the unopen bottles. Lots of sex toys and clothes. Found a dead body in the patch of woods in Teaneck on the way to school. the snow plow had pushed him up and into the wood area. Apparently someone dumped him off along the highway. Found a blood trail in the woods next to my Jr HS, found out a lady was raped and the guy cut her throat. She made it to a hose at the edge of the swamp, but did not survive. Found jewelry and money form people being robbed and the person tossing what they didn't want into the woods. Homeless camps, in the swamps, as well as items tossed out of cars. Once found about 30 nickel bags or pot under a bridge. I am guessing they were getting pulled over and tossed everything out of the window of the car. Wow. This world is so full of evil.

About 5 or 6 years ago Muskrat and I were deer hunting in the river bottoms (WI River) and we came across a "sex toy" about half exposed in a pile of debris commonly left as floodwaters recede. Maybe it has moved along downriver to you fellows in Iowa, Illinois or ?  If I remember right . . . the initials GCP were markered on the side. Hmmmm . . .
