Yes Julie, this place is a lot of fun with a lot of interesting things that keep popping up out of the mud and sand. I was able to make a few quick digs late in the evenings. found these timbers that were exposed after the last thunder storm.

Pulled out these three broken straight sided cokes from under the timbers. So there's a chance that there could be some whole ones. This is tough digging through all those bricks and rocks.

Those slugplated deco sodas are awesome. I love me a good round slug plate and I like the old decos so when combined it makes for one heckuva bottle.

Then I hit a spot that had bottle caps. Lots of bottle caps about three feet under the water. And a snuff was with the bottle caops.

Managed to get a few keepers before a thunderstorm made me pack it in for the day.

Went back yesterday after a thunderstorm had passed thru. Too wet to cut the grass....so it's not too wet to dig[;)]. I must have stirred this one up out of the mud at the last dig. Just lying there on the bottom covered in mud under about two feet of water.

Found a few keepers but it was getting dark. Too late to get the pictures. I'm digging through the sand and mud when this thing gets tangled around my wrist. At first I thought it was a .[:eek:]........turned out to be an old spongy fan belt.[:-] After that it was time to go.
