    Sweat my @$$ of but managed a few goodies....

    I got out with my digging buddies today early this morning for a dig where I got that RETENTIVE jar. It was HOT & HUMID. To be honest, it even made me feel uncomfortable. It felt like I was digging in soaking wet cloths (sweat). I still bottomed that old dump out and found a few...

    RETENTIVE FRUIT JAR DUG...

    Got out early this morning to the dump...it was a bit muddy but I did manage a few good ones including the mega-rare RETENTIVE fruit jar. I have to be honest, I never thought I would dig one of these, especially from the old and dug up city dump. I dug like hell to find the lid but no luck[:@]...

    Here is one for you fruit jar guys...

    I dug this one the other day; it is a lighting jar...yes, however it is very small. I think it is smaller than a pint. I would be grateful for any input from you avid jar collectors out there. I did dig the lid with it as well.

    More digs from down in the dumps...

    I got out to dig over the weekend with Chris(Glassgopher). We got into a pretty good pocket and scored quite a few decent old bots. We must have dug at least 200 blown slicks between the two of us as well. Anyways, we had a lot of fun... First shot is me in my hole looking out[8|]

    Recent find from my old stomping grounds...

    I have been revisiting some of my old dumps and putting in some work. It seems after a long break I can still put in a good hole and get to the goodies. It huts a little more after putting in a deep hole though. Sucks getting older[:@] but the benefits of being a little wiser continue to pay...

    Tumbled a few digs...

    I have a few photos I would like to share of some recent digs I ran through the tumbler. I took before and after photos. Being able to properly clean a good bottle DOES make all the difference in my opinion. Let me know what you think... Warner's before

    Dug a few goodies today

    Left work early to try my luck in one of a few old dumps I am currently digging. All the digs today were common, but I enjoyed digging them regardless. I dug a very nice chamber pot lid and a few others I took home. Hope everyone is getting out to dig some.

    Im wondering about this teal squat soda I dug...

    Just wondering if anyone has dug one of these. It is embossed D.G. HALL. I heard they were put out in Providence R.I. This one is old but it is not iron pontiled. Probably from the late 1860s. It is the second one in from the left.

    Digs from a recent trip to NY

    I recently visited a friend in NY and did some much needed bottle digging. I was confined to what I was able to take back as I flew out there. We dug a ton of cool stuff. Here is the stuff I took back home with me. Hope your all getting out to dig.

    Wondering if there are any other diggers in the NH area?

    I have not dug in a very long time, however, I want to get back into it. I was wondering if there was any other diggers in the NH area that wanted to get together and dig. I know of a couple spots that are producing. Thanks. JC

    Digging

    I have not dug bottles for years. I recently decided to get get back in the frey. The weather is getting cooler now so it is easy to get outside without sweating your but off. I recently met a digger that has been digging in this area for the better part of his life. He gave me the location of a...
