Well put those on my bucket list
I would be in heaven. I always look through landscape rock (washed river rock) when I find it outside a restaraunt or commercial building.
The brown stuff almost looks like Amber. I have a few pieces with weed seeds in them. (no bugs)

That would be so cool to see. Where is the first pick with the green and white rock at?

It kinda makes me laugh since these are just discarded brown beer bottles that got pounded in the surf for a few decades making them pretty. It makes me wonder what archeologists a thousand years from now will misinterpret them to be. I bet more than a few will spend years trying to figure out how brown glass was formed in the volcanoes of Hawaii instead of the usual black glass.
I remember reading a article about those beeches somewhere on the web. The glass was exactly that. Glass bottles that have been polished by the water and sand.

Only sorta. It from a giant garbage dump that over the decades the discarded glass bottles broke up and were pounded by the surf and polished. Eventually they collected there.

@Ddaddy, stone is installed and looks so much better than the original. Siding is supposed to be reinstalled on Friday. Then only thing left is the QA part.

that's what I have under my deck. A friend that used to have his own excavating business augered out the holes for me. and we got talking about landscape rock. Ended up giving me this stuff. He kept it from a school they demo'd.

Getting closer to wrap up on the Magnum. State farm came back with more money for the payoff, but wants more for the buy back. And if they don't get my deductible back( which is apparently not garenteed) I actually end up with less cash. 
Either way I looks like I am on my own to actually get my car back, which progressive hauled up near Harrisburg.
Still thinking I will keep the Magnum, but seriously debating if it will be worth the hassle. So far, just talked to claims office. Gonna go over with my agent tomorrow and see if any way to bump the numbers in my favor.

The city council meeting has turned into a Robert Rules of Order fiasco. LOL

I had something similar happen with my sons Firebird when it got rear ended and was a "total". What I did was show the agent "comps", the car was restored to a fair degree and they were low. They did come up but nowhere near where I wanted it to be. Be vocal and show them comps if you can, good luck.
What a goat and pony show!

Just the facts, ma'am
That was my impression of Fla when spending summers there. More recently though I've seen and heardsome great work being done by archaeologists. The imprint of early Europeans is there, its just not very strong or widespread.
Funny part is I consider Pennsylvania's British settlement as relatively late. It's all a matter of perspective LOL.
Here's some pictures of the historic evidence inside the house.
Inside the kitchen addition is original beaded lap siding!
Riven lathe over sawn plank logs
Arched stone support for 1st floor hearth and chimney.
Archeaology in progress where the adjoining section of the house was removed. It was probably built as an addition within a few years of the main house's construction. Nobody has done a complete title search yet - that may answer some of these questions.

Hah! We just went thru that here, over of all things kids snowmobiling across drive ways. I kid you not, it deteriorated to lawyers and quoting State laws, covenants you name it. Keep in mind this is teenagers and young adults rocking their sleds and cutting over some driveways to get to the fields. We chose silence as we had no dog in the fight but did state we have a sled friendly property. Our property borders the edge of no mans land! Some of these guys got some killer sleds. I for one was thrilled they were enjoying being out doors and not playing Nintendo (dating myself there!) anyway city council meetings can be a hoot!
Good Evening Mark!
