Hi Paul,
I'm tardy with my replies but better late than never, huh?
Just about every dump or location with bottles that folks have told me about (you'll find that MOST diggers will tell you about a dump if they think it's dug-out) still produced good finds for me. One in particular was dug 4-6 feet but after I got through the cap, I have had it down to 18 feet and not hit bottom. I started hitting 1860's stuff at about 9 feet and then ran into about 6 feet of just ash. All the old heavy stuff is below that.
The Middle Grounds still turns out great stuff. A lot of work, but it's the kind of deal where if you do find something, it's guaranteed to make your day.
I leave for Texas Monday the 18th and will be back the 23rd. That means this will be the 2nd year in a row I have missed setting up at Grand Rapids. I missed the National because of Uncle Sam, also.
Saginaw/Bay City is HOT right now for good digs.I'll explain when we talk.
I'll call you after I get back. I have your #.
