    I FOUGHT THE MUCK AND THE MUCK WON!!!

    Wife tells me Monday morning, if I do the dishes, I can go dig. Don't you know I was getting after some dishes. Had the dishes done and it starts pouring. Talk about mad. The place I was going to was right in the middle of a creek bottom. I would say we got maybe a half inch of rain. I decided...

    SATURDAY AT THE HONEY HOLE

    Howdy ya'll!!! After seeing everyone's great digging stories lately, diggin' like human backhoes, I had to post a couple of recent digs. Went to the honey hole last Saturday with a digger named Rusty. We dug for about 5 hours. He sifted and came out with two nice tokens, some marbles, and other...

    Monday Creek Finds

    Long time, no type. Finally got some of my computer problems fixed and of course some free time which has been almost non-existing. Got out to my favorite creek after about a two inch rainfall. I went to a super thin layer I've been working the past few times out. You know, the kind of place...

    Glass stoppers

    Here is a pretty cool stopper. Lea & Perrin with nice bubble. I have found some pretty awesome stoppers lately. Finding a bottle with the original stopper is pretty fun. I once found an ALFRED WRIGHT PERFUMER NEW YORK bottle with the original stopper. It was a flat, round stopper with a W on it...

    HONEY HOLE #2

    Here is a posting of my latest dig Friday, with Gatorman and friend Rusty who is an avid metal detecting advocate. Because they were sifting, they didn't find a bunch of bottles. They did each find a few rings, a few bottles, 10 or so marbles a piece, trinkets, buttons, tokens, and coins. I am...

    HONEY HOLE#1

    Finally got to go to the honey hole again. I'd say it had been about 2-3 months. Brought along an old schoolmate who is really into detecting. He had been begging me to take him dump digging, and Saturday I got the chance. After a late start, 1PM, we headed to the dump. Got there about 1:30...

    Walked a creek today

    This is the second time I've typed this, so kinda ticked. There must be a time limit or my computer is screwed. Tryed to post a picture and it said this feature is disabled or I don't have sufficient permission. This has been happening quite too often. Walked a local creek today and found the...

Has nice raised pyramids on the sides. POISON embossed on one side. Base is embossed P.D. & CO. ( Parke Davis & Co. ) and 694 which I am...

    My first whatzit? O.J.'s Beauty Lotion? Please Help

    Here's a bottle I found from a local dump. Me and my digging comrade each ended up with one ( cool how that works sometimes ), but I have never encountered this one before. Need to know where this company was from and if it's common or scarce? Maybe a value too if possible? This is a typical BIM...

The bottle bug hit me 17 years ago at the ripe old age of 18. My friend had a little collection he had found in Virginia. I picked each one up and looked...
