The teenagers had laughed and buried the box, sailing it across time toward an unimaginably distant shore.
They now stood on that shore. Around them were whispers from the past – old CDs, teen magazines, a Windows 95 t-shirt.

Oddly, they were all hairier now. Well, apart from Jill, because of the treatment.
“We’ll do it again,” said Jill suddenly. She placed her smartwatch into the empty box, then looked hard at the others. They nodded.
“We’ll open it on my sixtieth,” she said.

There was a time when TV shows and school children all buried time capsules.
When they opened the Blue Peter one it mainly contained green slime!!! 🙂 ❤
Blessed Be! 🙂 ❤
