Re: Minor Blood Loss for minor additions

Hope you flushed your cut with peroxide, and that you're current on your tetanus shot. Grab a pair of gloves and keep those bottles coming.

Re: Minor Blood Loss for minor additions

I had a pair of old leather gloves on, but apparently they weren't thick enough. It sliced right through them. I found a nice pair of kevlar gloves on Amazon for $10, so I might try them next. And yes, I did clean mu cut out. I don't know the last time I got a tetanus shot (if ever) so I hope I don't get infected.

2 snakes, 1 bottle

Today I went digging again, and one bottle. The bottle wasn't the most exciting part, though. When my dad came walking out to the spot, he crossed paths with a garter snake. That one was maybe 2 feet long, but it slithered under the Camaro before I could get a picture of it. Later on, while I was out there digging, along came the biggest snake I have ever seen. It was slithering along fast, so I couldn't get a good picture. You can't tell in the picture, but the thing had to be 4 feet long. I don't know much about snakes, but my guess is it was a black racer snake. Anyone have any guesses? That was the third snake I've seen in only a few weeks, so I guess this will be a bad year for snakes. Most years I only see 1 or 2. I'll share the bottle later.

Re: 2 snakes, 1 bottle

Could be a good year for snakes depending on how you look at it. Most definitely a black racer if it was fast. Garter snakes are usually the first seen out in Spring and the last to go in in the Fall.

You need one every 10 years. Lockjaw is deadly and not to be trifled with. The ground is full of the bacteria. It's not just on rusty nails.

Ok, sounds like I should probably get a tetanus shot. Is there a time limit after you get a cut where the shot won't help? And on a less life-threatening post, here's my latest update on the spot. Well, I don't have any interesting stories for these few additions, so I will just get right to the posting. The cobalt bottle that I think might have been a medicine (base embossed U.D. Co.[United Drug Co.?])was found Friday, the other 3 were found Saturday. Any thoughts on what the short bottle is? I was thinking it's probably a perfume. Again, if you want closer pictures let me know.

Last picture. Where's the picture? Let me try again.

On the bottle that might be a perfume, I for the life of me cannot find any seams. Any thoughts on what that means?
