Dug today on a whim. - 3/6/2010 7:25:30 PM    jays emporium Posts: 1386 Joined: 12/18/2006 From: Victoria, Texas Status: offline The auction I planned to go to today fell through so I went out to a 1930s dump I haven't been to in 3 years and dug a couple of hours.  Here is what it looked like when I got there.
