Sometimes, life throws all of us a curveball…and I mean that in a good way!
It’s always fun to stumble upon something cool when it is completely unexpected. And that’s exactly what happened with the people who shared these photos.
Hey, surprises can be fun!
Let’s take a look and see what kinds of things these folks uncovered!
1. On the frontier.
I wonder how old it is…and who it was intended for…

When train travel was all the rage. I wish it would come back, frankly…

5. Took a gamble…
Awesome! And for only three bucks!
I found this taped up in the toy aisle of Goodwill. Couldn’t tell what it did but thought I could detail it. Took a $3 gamble and then this happened…

6. That is really cool.
Hang on to those forever, friend.

7. What a nice gesture.
Why on Earth would something like that be in the trash?
A nice couple found my great grandpa’s purple heart in a forclosed home in a box labled “trash” and returned it to my family.

8. Wow! What a find!
From centuries and centuries ago.
My friend just found this little statue while digging in his own garden. The archeologists from the museum told him that it is probably from a grave dating back to 3-4000 years ago.

10. You always gotta wonder what’s below the water level.
What else could possibly be down there?
