We found the skull of some sort of animal – probably a fox, a while ago. And we’ve dug up an assortment of soup bones, cow bones and “who knows what” bones as we’ve been clearing the property. I know there are bones around, yet it’s always a bit startling to be raking leaves and uncover bones. In the front meadow alone I’ve found two such “burial grounds” for whatever they may have been.
It has happened often enough that Chris’ friend Len provided the proper attire for clearing our property of bones — a “Bone Collector” shirt. Now I hand him his shirt and a shovel and tell him I’ve found more…
Here is the most recent find.



Could be someone’s old dog?

But there is no collar or tag. I’d rather think it’s an old dog than an old person!

Sure that bone you are holding isn’t a femer bone? Just sayin.

Could be! We heard that might be a graveyard on the property — but these bones were barely under leaf cover.

Sounds like a bone yard.

Knochen könnte man ja auch auskochen für eine Suppe oder so!!
