It's probably old rusty iron from the 1940's. When my dad was 16 he was dropped off at a cabin on the prairie and told to fend for himself while looking after a horse and some cows. It's one of those stories I'd heard when I was a kid and then again towards the end of my dad's life. It was his legend and became a defining moment in his life, always returning in nostalgia to that moment, his Brokeback Mountain. The bed was buried in the scrubby bushes when he took me there as a kid. I was surprised to see it still there last weekend. It would be cool to have some of the detailed spindles maybe wrapped around the box or something...back at rest in the bed that defined the course of his life. What do you think?
It would be an honour to help you achieve this goal. I’ve got your PM and will be in touch later today.
