Yea there were a cpl in fact, hell I pulled up a piece of old tin or something, but under was a void, either washed out, or maybe left by other garbage that had decayed, but i could see whole jars, milk bottles, and liquor bottles at least 4.5 ft down! My arm, I'm pretty sure, wouldn't have been able to reach all the way down, but even though it's cooler, it wasn't cold enough for me to plunge my arm into that deep dark hole

Here's the bottle I could see lying on its side, in the river (or where water should've been, however everything here is low), so while I'm working, i walk over, since it was laying there for at least 30 days! Just up the embankment from where this one found, was the dump site IMG_20231230_160903_379.jpgIMG_20231230_160924_973.jpgIMG_20231230_160840_922.jpg

Try cleaning in citrus Acid also known as Lemon Juice. Leon.
Leon, does the lemon juice damage the print off the bottles and the caps? Im from Oklahoma and there was a Double Cola plant here many years ago and I found some old caps that I can not read them.
