We finished up the barrel tonight, it looked like it was gong to turn to 60s stuff but that thought went out the window, it was late pontil throws that we where finding,we hit rockclaybottom, and got 3 more aqua and teal beers & sodas five total, also another whole dark chocolate amber tea pot, all together we got three whole teapots! a chamber pot with a chip, all that stuff made it, but a rock tossed in the hole back then busted a nice large size Pine Tree cordial, my buddy Paul glued it back, that's his bag he loves doing that chit, what made my day was that tobacco sheaf of wheat & the cathedral pepper sauce & the umbrella ink, it didn't go 60s but it was a great dig, this pit was in the same yard we dug those 34 cobalt beers & sodas from so we got a 1850s pit and a 70s from this yard there may be a 1900 even somewhere in there to, that's another day, check out the pix I didn't get a shot of every thing all together it started raining and I didn't feel like getting things in order, but I did take a lot of single shots.Rick
