A 27-year-old message in a bottle was unearthed Saturday by a group of people picking up trash at Highland Bayou Park.
"I’m walking along the shore there, and I saw the bottle," said Terry Pettijohn. "It was buried about halfway. I said, you know, I think we’ve got a note in the bottle."
"As soon as we got [the message] out of there, and we saw the phone number, within two minutes, we were calling the number," said Pettijohn.The phone numbers are no longer in service, but the Keep La Marque Beautiful Commission was able to track one of the signatures down on Facebook. According to Standefer, he remembers some details about when he and his three friends put the message in the bottle 27-years-ago. Standefer believes they wrote the note in 1995 when he was a 10-year-old. Standefer recalls dropping the bottle about two miles from where it was located at Highland Bayou Park.
