Killer dig today! The spot I found was covered in rocks, but dated back to the 1700s! There were bottles in all the crevices! I'm out of breath already, lol, so I'll just show you guys the finds!

You just have to get out there and explore! I got lucky with the surviving bottles on this one, since its mostly rock. Plenty of criers.
