+<p>
+	I walk around a lot. Quite a bit, really! And I tend to notice weird little bits on the ground.
+	I pick these things up and cherish them.
+	And I'll catalog them here. My good little bits of scrap :D

+	<p>
+		look at my wrench! I found it in a crack! Where a parking-lot-blacktop met the concrete transition
+		from the road. I'm quite surprised I saw it; It was very well hidden. While I was
+		walking over it I noticed a glimmer, kept walking, and then double-took with a
+		sort of "what was that?" And there it was!
+	</p>
+	<p>
+		It's of the half-inch variety, a crescent on one end and a box-head the other. Oh, it's just so good! A proper
+		spanner! This find elates me so.

+		<h2>Belt Buckle</h2>
+		<p>time forgotten</p>
+	</header>
+
+	<img src="aeropostale-prehistory/dramatic_third.jpg" class="right"
+		alt="a belt buckle branded Aeropostale in cursive, stylized writing sitting on bricks." />
+	<p>
+		This little guy I found next to a brick, industrial building in Bensenville, Illinois. I was
+		very excited to find it! It's a belt buckle! That's so weird! How was it separated from
+		it's lengthy leather companion?
+	</p>
+	<p>
+		The body of the buckle seems to be some kind of stainless steel, but I can't be sure. It
+		has "Aéropostale" written on the frame where you might thread the belt material through.
+		The branding appears to be cast into it. The bar is very rusty and I would guess is a kind
+		of mild steel.

+		<h2>Grace</h2>
+		<time datetime="2022-09">Sep, 2022</time>

+
+	<img src="grace-prehistory/top_third.jpg" class="left"
+		alt="a small, metal placard with the word grace written on it haphazardly in varying tones of grey. there is a color test chart in the top-left corner." />
+	<p>
+		I found this walking through an under-construction bike path. It was mysteriously lying in a mound of dirt along
+		the path.
+	</p>
+	<p>
+		The metal feels lighter than steel and it's not magnetic; it might be made of aluminum? The writing feels rough.
+		I think
+		it's an etching or engraving.
+	</p>
+	<img src="grace-prehistory/testchart_quarter.jpg" class="smright"
+		alt="The top-left corner of the placard cropped on the colour chart" />
+	<p>
+		The little colour test chart is very interesting. Along the top it's labelled A through D
+		and the side 1 through 6. Only sixteen of the positions appear to have a colour. Most are
+		shades of yellow or grey. A-2 is a very nice blue, C-5 a pleasing pink. They get darker as
+		the rows go down, the sixth being too dark to make out much hue.
