Real funny thing about these couple digs.  Not once but twice I said to him.....you know I have never dug a Ayers out of here....no less than a minute later he pulls one.  That has happened multiple times.  Can't wait till it happens in reverse. 

Finally, been a member for almost 2 years now and have talked with Tigue about getting our "supporter" tags.  This fall when the digging slows down and we take an inventory we will put up a couple Ebay auctions for Antique Bottles.net.  A great site ! ! Lets support it.          Thanks again all.

Here is a pic showing how we buried the tree, which was a (dirt) monumental task.  All is well, completely covered and chopped in half.  Trenched a good 6 - 8' then a cave in, but all is well, the fun of digging.

The Dr Arnolds is real nice.  I got a call from Tigue that he was coming so I decided to "huff" all the fill I had made to give him a better hole.  This one was something I missed.  Made it worth it.  Never seen one.

Herre is another Rhody med.
Dr. Hough.  Embossed on three sides. 

I hope Tigue gets to post his.  He found a super nice local med.  I could of stared at that thing for hours.  I'll post a few other items we found, it was a rough week of digging with only minor results but fun none the less.  And hearing the same jokes over and over.  Mostly my bad jokes.

Hi

In one of the group shots you appear to have a crown seal codd could you show a close up of it as I have never seen one before, thanks,

John

hi aussiebottlo, it actually isn't a codd, it is just pinched at the shoulders for some reason...  I havnt been able to figure out why?  It has almost everything a codd has except no marble.  Any guesses or ideas would be appreciated!
