Well, my girlfriend and I were going to dig yesterday, but decided to go today instead. My previous post showed a good amount of bottles from this particular dump site. I knew we were starting to get into the good stuff, as we were getting deeper. Most of the bottles today came from the base layer - all BIM with good age. This was a day we all hope we can have every time we dig - unfortunately, that hardly ever happens, but when it does it feels so good - I know you know what I'm talking about! Today we decided to bring the camera - good karma I guess. We photographed almost every bottle in-situ, and out of the hole. I'm hoping you guys/gals feel the excitement that we felt as we saw that hint of glass sparkling in the hole, wondering if the bottle was whole. I'll start the photo session with a photo of the honey hole.

Tomorrow I'll post the cleaned up bottles.

Enjoy,

Richard
