Urban Archeologist: Video Dig Report!

A picture is worth a hundred words; video's worth a thousand.

 

This week I cranked up the old camera and shot several reels of footage at a New Milford estate sale. There was just too much for words to describe everything that was there.

Books, old papers, glass negatives and a very accommodating estate sale service that allowed me to cover this sale from top to bottom. Take a look at the video and tell me if you recognize any of the Connecticut history, some of which I bought, some of it I captured.

You might also want to stop here to view more of what I found in the video. There may be another sale at this location; if you send me an email I will let you know when it will be held again.

Please leave something in the comments about the video. If you like it, I promise there will be others. Happy hunting!

"Bethel teachers are not only educating students, but when society lets kids down, it’sRead More teachers who step in to fill the gap." Explain to me how an average salary of $60,000 per year for working 183 days during that year and an EXTREMELY generous retirement package (compared to the 240 a year the rest of us have to work) considered "society letting them down"?

It was a great job Mike and the EDC did on keeping the jobs from Cannondale from leaving Bethel. TooRead More bad Paul Z. won't have the guts to ask you about it on this "lively" show.

Billy: Since I don't own a beat up 1998 Honda (rather, a non-beat up, rather nice, rather newRead More European sedan) does that mean I would have been immune to the seduction of the reduction in my property taxes? Just trying to follow your logic here...
