Aloha Everyone,
I finally made it out to a place that I haven't been to in about 5 years, the timer was just perfect, 99% of the time the water is a dirty brown color, today was the 1% of the time the water was crystal clear, you could see bottles scattered everywhere, of course majority of the bottles where junk and a few keepers...A very rare AIEA SODA WORKS H.T., to bad it was all cracked up, for some reason in the making of the bottle the glass is very weak, majority of the AIEA SODA bottles are found with fractures...A HOLLISTER DRUGGIST and a EWA BOTTLING WORKS H.T., thanks for looking aloha Earl

Howzit Tony,
I been wanting to check out the place for a while, I was suppose to check out that water well that I was telling you about but instead I decided to check out the harbor because the wind was down the tide was low and it seem to be the logic thing to do, plus I live pretty far from there and don't know the next time when I can get out there...Good move ... all the times I've been there the water is brown and you would be searching for bottles in the blind, this is the first time I ever saw the water so crystal clear you could see the bottles just laying and partially exposed on the surface of the ground...
