The Dynamite Case

This rough looking case was used by my Father back in the day to store and transport dynamite. Yes, those actual red sticks that were used to blow up stuff!

I can remember several occasions when we blasted out stumps or boulders. It was Adventure!!

My dad was clearing out his shop one day and was ready to toss it out because the last time he used it, he had lost the key to the padlock, and had to tear the hasp off the box.

--I still thought it was cool, so I snagged it and now it is one of my favorite Relics!
