As the glacier in the backyard of the Northern estate begins to recede, scientists have begun to uncover many strange objects in both the terrain beneath the glacier path as well as the creek that runs along the side of the glacier.
Under the glacier:
1. a red wagon
2. several items of clothing including a red Santa hat, a blue T shirt, a scarf, mittens and many socks that may have been white at one time.
3. several shovels
4. a sled
5. a recycling bin
6. stuffed animals
7. various plastic toys and balls
8. the garden hose
In the creek:
1. a blue and green toy box
2. several pieces of a plastic jungle gym cube-thing
3. a rake
4. a bike with training wheels
5. a white plastic table
6. another sled
What curious inhabitants must have once walked these frozen lands back in 2007. What they have left behind may give us a small glimpse as to what life must have been like in those days before the glacier came. But we are left with many questions:
How did those objects get into the creek?
Did they get pushed by the glacier?
Was it some sacred ceremony or coming of age?
Did they know the glacier was coming?
Did they listen to their Mommy who probably told them to put their toys away "before the snow comes"?
We may never know.
