Current is just too swift. Since I can't dig I might as well clean up some until the water goes down. I'll post some cleaned up ones later. Buster

I'd like to find one of those in a local town...I know 2 good places to start.

ORIGINAL: logueb

Bottle was covered in rust, and was nothing special, just a Waynesboro, Ga Lime Cola.

Thanks for looking Micah, Mike and Glenn. I went back yesterday and the creek is still rising and there is more rain in the forecast. It was fun while it lasted but it appears to be over till next summer. So I'll try to sum up this dig as quick as possible and try not to bore you folks too much. There were so many broke and damaged bottles that it is impossible to put a quantity on them. Not sure how many years that they dumped into this spot in the creek, maybe several decades. Well, I finally got to cleaning up a few more. Three dark green Lime Colas. No towns on these.

Started going thru the Chero Colas. A few that I cleaned up. They are all 6 1/2 oz., but not all the same height. I guess there were variations in the different molds used.

Some of the Chero Colas are nice bottles that require very little cleaning.
