You know what, a past or a modeler or even a home owner might have created a time capsule that could be behind your bathroom or kitchen walls. Now, I have found a lot of really neat things in my career. I found beer bottles from Cincinnati breweries. I found cigarette boxes, money and old newspapers and it is really, really a lot fun when you discover them. Now, if you are going to create a new time capsule for your house. What would you put it in it? I will tell the things I like to put in. I like to put in newspapers, basically bottles and cans. Make sure you rinse them out, trinkets, any type of note that maybe if your child or you might write photographs and make sure you go ahead and protect them with some type of plastic bag, if you can to preserve it for the next person who finds that treasure. It is really a whole lot of fun into a great family activity. Okay, my time capsule is in place. I think someone is going to have a lot whole of fun when they discover it.
