AWESOME JOEL........I remember that dig........It was one of my first......Now I'm putting in 14 foot holes and leaving other diggers in the dust.....you guys created a monster....you should be PROUD.......Thanks for posting the pics buddy.....It is always nice to reflect on the digs gone past......it makes us as digger remember what we are here for........................we are here to expose and even bring back to life, even if for a moment, the memories of people that can no longer tell their story........and also to profit a little from their throw-aways/trash [;)]

Here's a rare one that I dug one 100+ degree day, last July. Hadda doit lest some fool beat me toit. LOL. A local product, circa 1875. Check out the neatly tooled top on this one, too. Some glass works were way ahead of their time, I guess.[8D]
