    I saw that the old burn barrel was beyond usability but remembered this out at the far end of the pasture so I rolled it back down here. Now I'm not sure whether to pry off the lid and make a clock and burn barrel or to sit around looking at an old Richfield oil drum pretending it has some intrinsic value as an antique. Any thoughts from the peanut gallery?

      That Ritchfield drum looks awfully unique to me...and I'd bet a more conventional (much newer!) 'burn barrel' wouldn't be terribly difficult to locate otherwise...

      I don't think I'd choose to destroy it, on purpose...? ;-) :-)
