Boston construction site dig

New collector in central Ma, seeking partner

Hi Mike, I'm a new member (today) and live in Nashua. Used to do a lot of exploring for old dumps and have dug a few bottles over the years. I'm retired and still have my health, and I'd be interested in any digs you'd like some company on. I'm available most of the time - weekdays or weekends.
