It's pretty common for a barrel filled with cement to be used as an anchor for a buoy or for tying up a boat. Why bring up a barrel full of cement?

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

Just a rational observation here...but, would a steel drum last underwater for sixty something years?
