Did you say 90 percent you dug? huuuum. I bet your wife likes them bottles new home. I would, but not in a basement I like to look at them too, all the pretty color.  Your collection looks like another I had been around. Nice why to live with collections and so it should be

ajohn, don't think the bottles have much to do with why you are not married

Digs,
if i had that many bottles i have one whole room just for all of them and then special ones scattered around the house like theme bottles for certain rooms. LOVE THEM!

Your's look great, but I feel sad for bottles in basements and boxes. Will your basement be a family room where you can enjoy them at least?

I think basements are just fine for bottles & artifacts. You can go down there and be surrounded by what you enjoy and what has brought you a great many wonderful memories. And hopfully you can shut the door and keep children out until they are old enough to appreciate what you have. They are like a tresure trove.                          Renee`

welcome dugout,
a treasure trove, i like that.
i like your reasoning behind the basement.
i just like to see my bottles.
i let kids touch my bottles.
start them early and they'll learn to
handle with care.
i do enjoy seeing how others display
their bottles.

but i do like that name treasure trove.

digs,
i'll have to look for you new postings.
as always they brighten up my life
to see you and your finds.

i did love all your bottles. you must
feel proud having pulled them out of the
ground. brought back memories as many i
remembered when you posted the digs.
take care my friend. lucky you
