Nice digs, Ben. Digging a nice pit or trench is a lot of work, but it often pays off. The amber druggist looks cool. May I see a close-up? Killer digs, bud. Keep it up! ~Jim

Hey, Mad. Nice digs!

That brown Cabot's Sulpho-Napthol you found was a household cleaner I think, and it brings back memories. No, I'm not old enough to have used it on my woodstove: The first bottle I ever dug was a BIM Cabot's Sulpho-Napthol, about 33 years ago. Pulled it out of a streambed one day while looking for frogs, and fogot all about amphibians after that.

I still have it, and it still makes me smile.

Hey you got some cool digs! Dont let the diggin get you down. I like that tall green thing in the back. My favorite though has to be the " XXX " bottle cap. It helps to take the pain away in your back from moving the third little pigs house out of your way.
