Thanks for sharing Joey. We have discussed spirits before and you know I’m skeptic. But darned if I can explain any of it either.
Let me know if you find the ring in a box of coins. That would be awesome.

When my father passed away and my mother sold the family home we took the family dinner table set. It is a Mennonite built table, with two leaves, and 10 chairs. We used it at our home for 15 years and then we moved it to the basement for storage. These solid oak double-pedestal tables seem to weigh a million pounds lol, I think they are made to last 200+ years easily. This one still looks new after 30 years. All hand- made furniture, the quality of work that goes into them is amazing, not even a single loose leg or part after 30 years of use, tight as ever, and no bolts or screws used anywhere on the chairs.
I've had it advertised for sale for a few months, and it is kind of sad that many people these days don't appreciate the quality that goes into this stuff. Everyone seems to go for that cheap Chinese built garbage that appears to be made of balsa wood or pressed cardboard, like you get from Ikea. The junky furniture is even twice the price of what we want for our solid oak set. I finally found a buyer for the table set and they are picking it up this weekend, it will be sad to let it go but I am glad we found a buyer who will put it to good use. It is better than sitting in my basement, and some day if we move we won't have to lug it around. The set is crazy heavy. We have freed up some much needed space downstairs too, so good news for us I think.

^^When my dad sold our family home and also sold off a lot of the furniture he said the same thing. stuff that is well built and you think would be valuable doesn't bring the money but the stuff that you think is crap and worthless is what people want to pay up for.
