After not having time to get back to my last digging location along the edge of a nursery about a 1/2 mile from my house, I jumped on my TREK and rode over late yesterday afternoon just after the sun peaked out from some previously rainy conditions. I hadn't been there since the end of June so I had to pull alot of tall weeds and figure out where I had last dug. I stayed for 75 minutes and came home with mostly generic non-embossed clear stopper top smalls....

This morning was nice and cool @ 70º and the hole was in the shade. I took a ride over again and stayed almost 2 hours finding a few new to my collection bottles....

Not that these are any gems by a long shot, It was nice to find something and get back over there for a few hours.

One bottle I found is a "TRACY" and a smaller version of one larger that I found several months ago in the late winter.

Anybody know what "TRACY" was?

My daughter is named Tracy. I'd be happy to take it if it's for sale. I finally got her interested in bottles and this one would put her over the top. Rick has first shot at it though for his cousin, but let me know....Thanks....Ron

MIGHT'VE BEEN A COLD CREME JAR? IT STILL HAD SOME PRODUCT INSIDE, BUT AFTER BEING BURIED FOR 50+ YEARS...IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE COLD CREME. :)
