I find people like this really annoying. It would never happen to me. I pay too much attention. :,(

Not hard to believe they left it on the patio! It’s not exactly...pretty or anything. LOL

I was thinking “Pier 1,” actually. ;)

This reminds me of the Antiques Roadshow episode of stuff rescued from the trash.
My favorite was the government employee who had several WPA woodcut prints in their original frames that she rescued from the trash when her government department moved to a new office. Her supervisor, the ignorant philistine who was going to just throw valuable, taxpayer-funded/owned artwork in the trash, said she could have them. They were worth several dozen thousand dollars, IIRC.

Just WoW!! How cool of a find.

Hehehe, Cool
Of course the only things I ever find in the garden that are linked to egypt are what the neighbors cats, who still believe they are deities, (all my attempt to convince them otherwise not withstanding) leave behind...

I found a old token in my garden once. It said good for one cup of coffee at Barnum's Coffee Shop at 242 Second Street. I went down to redeem it but there was a lot that had been vacant for 176 years...

Yep, that’s the look. Seen it many times.
I wonder if cat can be successfully composted?
To: Dr.Zoidberg
I know goats can be composted, so I’m pretty sure a cat could be, too.
Just don’t stand downwind from the compost pile when either are in there, LOL!

Nah, I’d not do it.
I know the neighbors and they do TRY to keep the cats at home. So I just toss a few gravel their way to send them running.
Of course I do think less than charitable thoughts about neighbor and cat when I find crap in the rows.
