OK, I've collected bottles since I was 14 (even though the early ones have disappeared in moves and such). I have bought all my bottles but the digging itch is bad. I DREAM I've found caches of old bottles!! I wouldn't mind finding that valuable bottle but mostly I'm interested in where it's been, its unusual characteristics, it beauty in color or form. I'm a history buff who's greatest adventure was helping out with an archeological dig here in Alabama. Can anyone tell me some resources in print on how to get started digging, where to look for prospective spots (how to recognize the ole outhouse site, for instance) and what tools may be needed (OK, I know, a shovel is a good start, haha). I've been to Digger Odell's site and looked at his book titles. Are these good references?
I live in historic Montgomery, AL and know there's a cache waiting for me out there. Thanks for the help in advance. (Oh and thanks for reading this far!!!)
