RE: diggin with mr b - 4/21/2007 9:20:40 PM    whiskeyman Posts: 2020 Joined: 4/17/2005 From: NE TENN-SW VA Status: offline MADMAN, LEE, & I went diggin' again yesterday and today. SHRPTHNG joined us today. We all were pleased with our individual "keepers". I kept: 1) White House Vinegar  1/2 gal. jug w/pour spout/finger loop in pale green.2) Nu Grape deco soda in green3) Bristol VA Christmas Coke 19234) Craigs Better Beverages/DrPepper Bottling Co. with "icicles" embossed as if running down the sides...( base chip)5) John R Dickeys Eye Water/Bristol,Va-Tenn.6) Ball Ideal clear pintand...a bunch of more common type bottles & jars.We moved a ton of dirt, ash, bricks, rotten cans and metal  in our pursuit of  those "jewels of the dirt." MADMAN & LEE both found some jewels for their collections. SHRPTHNG - he just came along to dig and socialize. A great time was had by me. I'm lookin' forward to further adventures at The PeaNut Butter Dump ( as Madman & Lee call it)....I really enjoyed it and we had great diggin' weather,too. I'll get some pix on here as soon as I get the bottles cleaned up...... _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.
