Archeology of a campground
The post about the Found Wedding Ring made me wonder about what an archeological dig of a campground 200 years from now would find. Jewelry, yes but what about other items?

And beer cans, bottle/can openers, loose change, faucet washers, small hand tools (shovels, etc.), burnt off ends of campfire wood, empty citronella candle buckets, and a mess of butane lighters that still have fuel in them but they stopped working.........- beer bottles.

I was at Barren river state Campground in KY a while back and saw an old angle style tent stake a tree had grown around. It was solidly embedded in the tree and from the looks of it was probably over 30yrs old. VERY deep into the tree.
Pretty cool.
