Default Time...forgoton like tears in rain

Howdy all;

Had a little huntin' time after I tubed down Juniper Creek (and got too much sun). So sunburst and all, I went out both yesterday and today for short hunts with my neighbor Mark. I found what looked like an older watch case...didn't realize how old it could be till i got home and remembered I was given my Grandfather's Ball watch by my Grandmother. I guess Grandpa Gutierrez used it back during the great depression time frame...haven't quite dated it yet. It is in the second and third pics for reference to the find. It even has a 10k Gold filled stamp...wonder about my old find...looks well worn off if so. Also found my first dog tag, and another matchbox car. These finds were maybe one hour each both yesterday and today...oh I forgot the one penny I found...haha! thanks for lookin'
