A few years ago, my FIL was helping me rebuild my back fence. While we were working on removing the old posts that had been set in concrete, I remarked that I was afraid to do too much digging because I might find something I don't want to find. Not 5 minutes later, the shovel sticks to something and I pull it out, expecting to find part of a tree root attached. Instead, I see what looks for all the world like the top 5" or so of a femur, complete with the offest and the ball. We quit digging and decided that hole could be a little shallow. No clue what it was, and I sure don't want to know. Threw it back in the hole and added concrete with the new post.
