[QUOTE="Potteryplease, post: 12869384, member: 16407"]This may qualify as a "find" in more ways than one.... Earlier this summer, I was bicycle touring the Oregon coast when I found a blue glass bowl labeled 'Peking Glass bowl' and that came with a Chinese stand. The price was great, and, being me, I bought it. But then I had to carry it on my bicycle for at least a week and another c300 miles. I knew I was going to come back to the coast later in the summer, so a day or two later, I decided to hide the bowl in the bushes along Highway 101. Yesterday, 5 weeks later, I returned to the same spot and sure enough, it was still there. :D:wacky:;) [ATTACH=full]556941[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]556942[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]556943[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]556944[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
