A Mysterious Phone Call, and a 50 Year Old Message in a Bottle

When he saw and heard the voicemail, Ken Henderson didn’t recognize the number, nor the voice. He was at work in New York City (“The Center of the Universe,” as Richard Kaplan calls it). The woman on the line said she was in Griffin, Georgia and then said something outlandish. “You’ve got to check out this post about a 1970 message in a bottle,” she said, “I think it could be from you.” A 50 year old message in a bottle? Could it be? Of course he had to return the call immediately.

My Dad’s Mysterious Find: A 1970 Message in a Bottle From Georgia

In 2018, my adventure-loving dad was grooving his way down a desolate Caribbean beach when he found this old bottle with a crusty scroll inside. It was mysterious. It was intriguing. It was clearly old and fragile (my dad, of course, is 3 of those 4 things himself!). Every bottle my family has ever found that looked like this has been from the 1970s. In fact, the last message in a bottle my dad had found was from 1970. Could this be another?
