does anyone...

[DiggerBryan]

alright this may sound a little odd...maybe. Does anyone dig bottles for a living? Or maybe work part time and supplement the rest of your income by digging bottles? If this is possible I'd be quite tempted. However, I have a hard time giving up anything I dig. []

Well, I can say this: it's no riskier than being a free-lance artist! [&:]

 

[DiggerBryan]

hey cyberdigger, are you a freelance artist by any chance? [8D] Pretty cool none the less. Never did have any artistic talent...I still draw stickmen to this day!

Do you play "Hangman" ?? Here, guess a letter: _ _ _ _ _ _ . []

 

[DiggerBryan]

Ah, hangman is a classic. I used to play every Sunday with my sister to pass the time during the church service. [&:] I'm pretty sure the good Lord wrote that one down.

Bryan,
I don't dig bottles for a living but I do supplement my income with bottles. My digging is mostly digging through boxes at estate sales to buy bottles for resale. In a couple of years I expect to retire from engineering and build my collectibles business up. In fact I expect to move from Texas to Zanesville, Ohio in a couple of years. Maybe we could get together and do some real digging then.

bottle digging for what? did you sell the bottles up something? or just for fun thank god i was part of the playstation era must admit i was partial to a bit of scrumping apples and i dont think kids do that anymore either now they scrump your house instead

 

[DiggerBryan]

Hey Jay, I try to do the same when I'm browsing through antique shops and flea markets. I never can seem to find too many "sleepers." We could definitely do some digging if you move to Zanesville as it's not too far from where I am.

Not too sure what the post above is about?

I am retired and I supliment my retirement income with the bottles that I buy, dig and sell. I look forward to a time when I can totally dig for the fun of it but for now, especially in this economy, that is not a reality. One good thing is that I am constantly giving up bottles that would tend to accumulate if I were not selling them. This way I am very selective of what I keep and what I sell.
