My parents bought an 80 acre farm in 1957. Dad raised cattle and sheep on this rough ground with a lot of hills and creeks. Growing up here was always fun to go exploring for arrowheads and digging up old bottles on one of the hillsides that dad said was an old town dump from around 1900- 1940,my sister and I found numerous old different colored bottles with dates on them some were from the 1850’s. One place we liked to go was where someone had long ago parked five old 1920’s era cars that were partially buried and shot full of bullet holes,we called it the Bonnie and Clyde memorial. Great memories for my generation and my children’s generation and their children, arthritis has got the best of me now so I just tell the youngins to venture out and see what’s out there.
Hi Silas, That clear bottle is a Brooks Ketchup bottle. I remember my parents buying that brand, had a good taste. Interesting things on your property besides whole vehicles.
It’s Brooks Catsup! That’s the way it was spelled on the label, I grew up in Missouri and mom bought Brooks because it was cheaper than Heinz’s and tasted great! I think it was made in Illinois somewhere near Bellville.
* Hey Silas . The orange bowl thing could be a top for a utility engine's air cleaner. The bottle you found was a Brooks ketchup bottle. Brooks made ketchup (Tangy Ketchup) in Collinsville Illinois. They were known for the world's largest ketchup bottle which towered over they're plant. Bird's Eye own the brand now and only sell a limited amount of product. The wife and I love your stuff Silas. You never fail to entertain.
I am in Great Britain, England. The armadillo footage was just great. I did not know that they lived in middle America. One of your best post/downloads. Thank you very much for the outing . JR/UK
The armadillo would make a great short clip video for TH-cam. And maybe help to find this channel is what it is nature and getting out there and exploring it. Thanks for showing the armadillo and maybe next time take a canvas bottle collector bag. As if you don't have enough to do but some shelves and your bus and decorated with the things you find out there like the old bottles.
@@JohnShinn1960 yeah I clicked on your link and I have watch this short before but it is hilarious and true. The song is perfect. Salis and Josh over at sleeper dude 88 both seem to like these vehicles. Maybe they could do a joint show of competition and see who could build theirs first.
The spot with no trees most likely was a fill spot.. they dug a giant hole and filled it with trash and the trees didn't grow back because the root systems were destroyed
I like these out in your woods explores. Can I ask how your spraypainted coding system works? "F" "FS" etc. I noticed the Galaxy got two codes "F1 and F2" Thanks Silas! 🤠👍👍👍👍 Old Spice aftershave bottle at 22:06. Yes, if you get a trail cam, I'll watch.
Silas I heard Kansas has some really big bucks. Yes I think it would be a great idea to set up some cameras I would love to see the deer. I'm in Texas.
Personally I would clear most of that out !!!! Its been decades since I have seen a armadillo 😊👍👍👍 i know if you hit one in the road !!! They can cut tires and generally mess your car up 🤔🤔🥴🥴🥴🥴
Cosy Fire to to start the Day - that little Stove is a Total GEM ! Would be nice if You could capture some Images of Deer in the Woods ! Exploring around Your Yard in the Woods - all kinds of Scrap Metal - old Car and Farm Parts and other Stuff ! We would have kept the Brown Bottle - that is Vintage ! Oh Dear - oh Dear - ha-ha ! Cute Armadillo - friendly Creature ! You found some other Old Bottles and kept them ! Thank You for taking us on a Brilliant Hike all around You Property ! Cheers from Australia !!!!
The Armadillo is something my husband won't shoot. He said they had a hard enough time staying alive. I read that 20% of the Armadillo in North America has leprosy. That was a cool adventure. You have a really neat place. My adventures lately involves driving to Austin at night. Not a good adventure at all. 😁
The fungus on the tree is a The oak fire fungus (Phellinus robustus) it also grows on trees other than the oak. produces white rot and slowly kills the affected trees over a period of several years. greetings from Germany
If you saved about 4/5 of those bus seat frames, leave them in place, but just remove the cushion. It would back a great Bed frame in the Bus/cabin...just a thought..
Thanks for bringing us along on your outdoor adventure, Thumbs up,clear and cold there in a guy drove Minnisota to Utah, said it was cold himself in Kansas
You know some of those trucks you cut the front grill and fender and hood off of in order to make art. I was only being humorous when I thought of it at first but one of them would be very handy as awning above your entry door on your bus. The part that you left behind of the hood and hanging onto the bus has an awning. I guess you can make as many awnings as you want it down the side of your bus wherever you got windows. But be functional keep your little dryer when you get in and out of the bus. It have little touch of art to it as well. As far as the stuff in the woods don't worry about getting it out. Put your price on it and set parameters and let the buyer get it out of there. Build also clear your another path where you can put a small outbuilding. Then you can camp out in it if you like as well as when your mushroom hunting a place to step inside if it gets a little inclimate weather. Just a couple of stray thoughts that would incorporate your automotive interest with your adventure interest.
We were taught in school that almost all of North America was covered by forest prior to European settlement. Hard to believe untill you watch a video like this, or one of Silas' farm cleanup videos. It's amazing how quickly the forest reclaims cleared land if nobody bothers to cut it back.
Unrelated but I read an article in the Baltimore Sun this morning, you Mainers aren't allowed free speech on your personalized license plates anymore. "I love tofu" is verboten! Is it true? 😂🤣 Oops, just learned Maryland does it too! 🥺
cheap peanut butter , cut the bottom off and screw the lid to a tree . this way , all you have to do is unscrew the empty and put another one up . works really well.
You might be in the area where there's Herkimer diamonds buried in the ground along with regular diamonds you never know until you dig down that's the advantage of owning property you never know until you dig dig dig
Are you nuts. Your going cut up old cars and trucks. they are worth a lot of money. I wish i owned a junk yard, you can take some of the cars and trucks rebuild them and make a lot of money for all most nothing. I took 3 cars of the same make and built one good car.
Some of these parts are worth money to someone rebuilding old cars and trucks. It may be worth while clearing a pathway and gather up these parts and post them for sale. Regarding all the old steel, there may be value for is as scrap to recycle.
If I was you I'd clear out the younger brush and open the land up a bit so that you can get better use of your property. I cleared my land out by hand and built my home here in the deep south...of the far north.
The white bottle is an old Old Spice Cologne bottle possibly from the 60s.
That's a 1939 Ford pickup. A 1938 is similar. That grille is worth about $300 by itself. The chrome strip down the middle is expensive too!

What state are you in?
* Silas, Never Knew There Were Armadildos In Kansas ! 🤭 Kansas Cactus Too ! Who Knew ?! 🥴

Armadillos are unfortunately appearing in areas they were not previously indigenous. Sadly they carry diseases such as leprosy.
Brooks Tangiest I think was Ketchup
i live on 20 acres in Adelaide south Australia and ive got echidna s that just walk up to me as they dont get bothered by me
Looks like a 1938 Ford
I would love to see what you catch on a trail cam. Sounds like interesting footage to me. Stay well Silas. 😊😊
I love going out like this just adventuring and seeing what could find.
I really enjoyed this video. I love exploring and finding cool stuff like that.
Put out mineral blocks. And salt blocks

Yes and use that song "I see it and I like it and I want it".

Silas, you’re having too much fun even on a cold day!
Possum on a half-shell... We got them in Tennessee. Spread all over the roads. Flattened, of course....
I like these out in your woods explores.
Can I ask how your spraypainted coding system works? "F" "FS" etc. I noticed the Galaxy got two codes "F1 and F2"
Thanks Silas! 🤠👍👍👍👍
Old Spice aftershave bottle at 22:06.
Yes, if you get a trail cam, I'll watch.
F stands for Florida where the buyer is from. The number is the inventory number. The front of the galaxie was F1 and the trunk was F2
Silas I heard Kansas has some really big bucks. Yes I think it would be a great idea to set up some cameras I would love to see the deer. I'm in Texas.
Kansas is a premier hunting destination for a lot of people.
I like the concept of nature reserve/ junk yard. Good call leaving the bush where it's thick. I'm not a hippy, but nature wants its privacy too.
The trees don't look tall there. What's the average height?
put a couple of salt blocks out
Love the exploring walks you take. Thanks for sharing!!
That red thing kinda looked like the bottom of a Christmas tree stand.
Keep an eye out for Amelia Earhardt and Fred Noonan while you're back in those woods.
You forgot Mae West!
😍
You may even find Jimmy Haffa😂
Thanks Silas, lots of interesting things on your property!
What fun finding treasures. Very interesting seeing that armadillo. Thanks for sharing your time. Peace
Personally I would clear most of that out !!!! Its been decades since I have seen a armadillo 😊👍👍👍 i know if you hit one in the road !!! They can cut tires and generally mess your car up 🤔🤔🥴🥴🥴🥴
Great video Silas very good Like the armadillo
38/39 Ford truck grill....could be worth something to somebody
Brooks tastiest ketchup !
that last bottle looked like an "Old Spice" bottle with the little nipple on top that you pressed to dispense the liquid inside
Cosy Fire to to start the Day - that little Stove is a Total GEM ! Would be nice if You could capture some Images of Deer in the Woods !

That red dish looks like a Christmas tree stand without the green legs.
TO BAD you are so busy it looks like it would be fun for days exploring out back there . Endless treasures !
Wassup
I can honestly say that this is the first time I have ever seen someone put a wood-burning stove in a bus.
real common at one time.
please dont crush those old cars and trucks
That round orange red thing was a top to a cooking pan it's missing the handle on top is my guess. Do I win a prize?
The 85 on the Ford front clip refers to the engine horsepower. 85HP flathead V8.
That looked like the top off a coleman lantern.
This was a super cool vlog ! Thanks Silas...!

Armadillos are far from endangered.
The pickup grille is a 38 or 39 Ford. Bed looks to be the same
If that grille is from a Cabover? It's worth 1000's.
Years ago me and my brothers use to catch & release armadillos in Texas lol. they're very harmless animals
I believe that Ford grill and fender are for a 1938 model truck.
That's a 1938 ford 85 pick up
I don't know the identity of the mushroom at 6:25 but you can eat anything once.😁
Red thing is a center cap off of a kids red wagon
Red thing might be a old pot lid? Looks like a handle piece could go in the center
Clear it out and stack up some more old farm trucks.
Maybe stack some bricks by the stove, radiate some extra heat?
The fungus on the tree is a The oak fire fungus (Phellinus robustus) it also grows on trees other than the oak.
produces white rot and slowly kills the affected trees over a period of several years. greetings from Germany
If you saved about 4/5 of those bus seat frames, leave them in place, but just remove the cushion. It would back a great Bed frame in the Bus/cabin...just a thought..
I will just be using a cot for bedding. With a permanent bed, I would be worried about pack rats
yes to trail cam if you have deer and other little creater you will have apex creaters to maybe a bigfoot lol great video
Thanks for bringing us along on your outdoor adventure, Thumbs up,clear and cold there in a guy drove Minnisota to Utah, said it was cold himself in Kansas
Dang you let dinner run away wow lol great video bro
A heard of goats will clean that place up.
White bottle is Old Spice.
Tht white bottle looks like an Old Spice

hatchet ....chop them blocks up for kinlin .....
my first wild armadillo whoopie!
This definitely was a cool adventure
Maybe the red “bowl” is a top to an oil bath air cleaner?
Start making a trail with that Bobcat
Did you mark a Mercedes to chop up?
Yeah. I’ve had it for awhile but it had some condition issues that scared everyone away.

You could get that stuff out Silas you got the cool equipment it's hard living it there
top off a tractor dust colicter on the air filter
White Bottle = Old Spice
Fun video exploring your property‼️ Thanks for sharing Silas‼️
If you want have cleared take better pictures of your cars and trucks.FOR SALE best offer.people will come to get what they want
Kearney Nate lonely Kansas River from Palm springs to Kansas City they took old Greyhound buses and hold the riverbanks back
nice winter tour!
That armadillo experience was way cool . We don't have them up here in Maine
Unrelated but I read an article in the Baltimore Sun this morning, you Mainers aren't allowed free speech on your personalized license plates anymore.
"I love tofu" is verboten!
Is it true?
😂🤣
Oops, just learned Maryland does it too!
🥺
@@JohnShinn1960 I haven't heard that but sounds about right these ridiculous days !
1938 or 1939 Ford pickup grill and parts. Maybe you could set up an old school dragline with a tractor PTO to retrieve the old iron
Temperature is MINUS, electrical is Negative. 35 Ford grille.
1938 Ford truck I have the same front clip with both fenders
I am looking for a 1950 or 51 Ford truck or car!! Or 1953 or 54 Chev truck!! Would like to no if you have one of these.
20:09 might be the lid / top for a old Coleman lantern. They made things sturdy BITD ! But NO , I am not positive !
Coolt from sweden
cheap peanut butter , cut the bottom off and screw the lid to a tree . this way , all you have to do is unscrew the empty and put another one up . works really well.
The white bottle is an old spice aftershave bottle
You might be in the area where there's Herkimer diamonds buried in the ground along with regular diamonds you never know until you dig down that's the advantage of owning property you never know until you dig dig dig
Camera yes
Great. More content!
Well bub it's 6 o'clock here in Indiana in the morning so I'm going to lay down for awhile and then I'll check you out when i get up
Are you nuts. Your going cut up old cars and trucks. they are worth a lot of money. I wish i owned a junk yard, you can take some of the cars and trucks rebuild them and make a lot of money for all most nothing. I took 3 cars of the same make and built one good car.
Good Day Silas, that red/orange top/cover look like it come off an aircleaner of some type of heavy machinery.
Some of these parts are worth money to someone rebuilding old cars and trucks. It may be worth while clearing a pathway and gather up these parts and post them for sale. Regarding all the old steel, there may be value for is as scrap to recycle.
Do you want to get the front loader and just make a path all the way to the back where you're searching you never know what you'll find
The old car by the old tanks could be a model A or model T I come to this conclusion because I recognize part of the hood....
have your wife ,save the lint from the dryer at home .it works well for starting fires with..
Bulldozer just for fun if not just get some firewood out of the deal, plenty of firewood just run it over and pick it up
Armadillo was called a hover hog during the depression
If I was you I'd clear out the younger brush and open the land up a bit so that you can get better use of your property. I cleared my land out by hand and built my home here in the deep south...of the far north.
Silas, please tell me you aren’t crushing those restore able trucks😢
You really should clean up the property, the rust from the metal gets into the water table.
The red thing may have been the top from an air filter the thump lock straps.
