What is the most valuable or most interesting sort of thing you have ever found?

Other than a boyfriend or a girlfriend or a wonderful president to support.

    I found marine fossils 40 miles inland at an elevation of 453 feet in California.  I used to hike by myself in the hills which were off limits.  Watched the beginning of an excavation of a dinosaur many years ago, in another state. 
    At a Goodwill I found an exquisitely hand carved wood oriental scene, incased in glass.  It is beautiful.

    I found a really cute car for my daughter... it's an automatic, we aren't so used to them over here so it's quite different.. but i think it will suit her :)

    I'll post one: A man is at his tallest when he stoops to help a child.  My most important one is of another realm.

    I found myself being an extra in "The Shawshank Redemption."

    You mean by accident? 
    I worked four times as an extra but couldn't stay with that job. 12 hours -about 10 hours sitting around and 2 hours on set. Too boring.  Pay was good and good meals and snacks though.

    No, not by accident. I was just trying to connive my way to answer in away to mention the movie.
    :)

    My experience was very similar to yours.

    Ok. I never been much of a movie goer so I don't know the movie or the story.

    It became quite a sensation from what I can tell but I may be biased. I've only seen the movie once. But saw myself several times in the movie.
    The movie was based on a Stephen King novella called "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption." It's quite a good drama about hope and, yes, redemption.
    :)
    Great cast from top to bottom, too, in my opinion.

    Okay.. I never even went to see the movies I was in and I can't remember names of the movies.
    I remember one where I played a bit part -a western where i had to buy a stamp from the pony express guy then hand him the letter for mailing.  This post was edited by Kittigate at July 9, 2018 8:41 AM MDT

  • A bobcat in a small Massachusetts state park woods reservation. I think someone may have let it loose.
    I couldn't believe it. Really.
