Great stuff, love the shaker and the monkey - and some nice glass too! Great videos, I get pumped up to go out and dig after I watch your videos. I think I've got a privy at an old foundation out by me, but not 100% sure it's the right spot. If you're ever interested in digging this one with me, let me know - I'm wearing my girlfriend out!

Much appreciated for all the comments folks. We are going to get in the dirt in a few hours. And Anders loves the monkey and that ink surfa was talking about. Nice job finding that pic surfa. Thanks again all.

Here is a nice pic of an ink I got recent. This is the second one and they are an exact match. Nice pink color.

Hello folks,
Got out to throw some dirt of late.  Had some fun and got a few nice ones.  Loaded with metal but still a good time,
Tom dug a sweet jug.

I keep looking at what your calling a monkey.. I'm not sure if it is a monkey ..I think it might be something black americana with the lips as big as they are....

I would say that's it's the fourth evil, Do No Evil. Look at the expression on the face and the placement of the hands. Like......"Howd this happen!!!!"[:D][:D][:D].
Seriously though. Great dig Madpaddla and good luck on the next did.

Anybody have any info or ideas about the amber blob I found in the first video at :45? The makers mark is a "P" on the bottom or a "d" depending on how you look at it...

Hi Ben, great digging. The ink is #1, the MOXIE is #2, in my book. The shaker is interesting, the monkey is a keeper and I am glad you can get out and do the things you do, it certainly pays off. What are your plans for the one and two? RED M.
