    Tips on where to dig?

    See if there are any old atlases from your state that would have old properties listed. PA has a site that has aerial photos from the 30s-present that i use to compare to the old maps as well

    Help finding old farm dump in PA

    I use the Beers Atlas from 1876 from my area, it has all the townships and towns with the roads, properties and shows where the houses were with family names. I compare them to aerial photography from this site...

    YouTube digging channels

    I like his channel, i agree he does seem to put alot of work into it and he keeps anything that might be cool even if its not real valuable

    YouTube digging channels

    Thanks a lot, ill check them out. Watching digging is getting me motivated to get back out when im well. This time off will help some other beat up parts of me rest and heal too, LOL, thats been the biggest factor in me not doing much digging this summer so far. Getting old sucks!

    Hi all, recovering from hernia surgery so have ALOT of downtime. Can anyone recommend any good digging channels on YouTube? Im pretty fond of Adventure Archaeology and Digger Dave, but would like to find some more, especially if they are in PA.

    Rodger the cat.

    The lighting in our apartment is terrible for pictures of any kind, he does look nicer in person. After 3-4 days out its back underground and fat on crickets lol. The Rat snake pics are great!

    Rodger the cat.

    My salamander finally made an appearance a few days ago. I poured water in the tank, and he came busting out of the soil like a chest burster from the Aliens movies:D

    What's Your Favorite Quack Medicine

    Fellows' Syrup of Hypophosphites, marketed toward doctors rather than the general public, also apparently contained strychnine!

    What's Your Favorite Quack Medicine

    Thought this would be a fun topic to start. I get a kick out of the names of some of the "medicine" used back in the day as well as some of the interesting ingredients that were put in them. I'll start with a local favorite, Oil of Gladness, a specialty of Moyer Brothers Bloomsburg PA...
