Not super old, but nice!

Found em' by the remnants of a shack way out in the sticks, the big wash pan too!
Moonshine?

The only 2 blue ones that weren't broken..

Now you've done it! You'll have to put in a vegetable garden, or pick loads of berries, to put all those canning jars to good use.

Lol. I'll keep the blue ones and try to sell the big boys.

I need to go back to that spot, there's tons I didn't get, and I barely searched.

That big wash tub was a God send, and getting em' all out undamaged was a miracle!

You'll have no problem selling the 1/2 gallons or any size aqua jars. Let the fun begin. Keep us posted. (Btw, you can sell the tub too, or use as a planter.) Congrats.

I keep colored jars. I really like the deep aqua ones!

The ½ gallon ones were just money sitting there, so I had to "rescue" them.

It was a bitch lugging that tub FULL of jars up and down ravines with no path! (One trip!)

The tub is too cool to sell lol

I used to carry a burlap "gunny sack" and some newspaper for that purpose back in the day. It worked well but not perfectly--climbing out of a creek ravine one time, I bumped the bag with one of my digging tools. The strike chipped the ground lip and sent a crack down the side of one of the larger and nicer food bottles I ever found. Thank goodness it was not anything of the cathedral pickle class!

I haven't heard of a digger worth his salt who hasn't had something like this happen. Its like a right of passage. Some will focus on the one impacted. Some will focus on how many others were saved in the effort under difficult circumstances. (Choose wisely. ) Remember wise old Nutmeg saying-"It can be two things."

If I wasn't so beat (found the spot at the end of my day), I'd have made multiple trips and cleaned out the area.

It's on the list..
