Ten Odd Things We Own

Hat tip to @RayInNJ for a great list idea. We all have quirky stuff. What do you have that is quirky or odd?

1. Pillow

I posted this on Facebook awhile ago saying we have a Clint Eastwood pillow. The consensus was that I was very wrong about it being Eastwood. There was a mix of Charles Bronson and James Coburn.

2. A "baseball card" of a Native American Chief.

It is from the 1880's.

3. A dog that isn't a dog

The bigger one is about the size of our dog Pee Wee. It took Trixie, another one of our dogs, a while to figure out the bigger one wasn't actually a dog.

4. A Christmas wreath made from kitchen utensils

5. Lou Gehrig on Masonite

6. Rail track from the earliest days of Walker

Walker, where we live, was a mining area for quite a while. Seven or eight years ago we were given several pieces of track used for ore carts dating to the 1870's/1880's. It is extremely heavy. We incorporated a couple of pieces into our house and are more like caretakers, not owners, of the rest. The picture shows three pieces.
