    Any Arizona Diggers out there?

    Q, Do not be so sure you can not dig in Las Vegas; I am sure that buildings are knocked down once and a while in the old downtown area. Have you looked at the Sanborn maps for Vegas? I have the entire state of Nevada and will check them out; could send you Vegas? Do not know to much...

    Snake Oil, the real deal.

    Joel, He is very quite until he finds a pit and then he bays. I took samples from 8 or 10 pits and trained him with treats and the privy dirt. Find a pit get a treat. He has found pits with up to two feet of fresh fill over the top! His name is Rufus the amazing pit hound. Karl

    Matt, Sorry I was calling you Gunther. I have attached a picture of a very rare Prescott bottle I dug from a pit not to long ago. It is only from 1895 but one of the rarest Arizona medicines. Karl
