Back to the Lane on Wednesday 7th, still hot and a nasty SE wind swirling dust in my eyes ! Photo shows location of hole ~ which is ominously "grave sized" !

I don't take too many of these because of dust getting into the camera, but thought this shot of a castor oil lying on an oval medicine would look interesting:

This was the haul for the day, quite satisfying, especially for the amount of coloured glass for once:

And some of those blues after cleaning. The dark oval bottle reads "Omaha Disinfectant" down the side panels:

And one of my all time favourites, got several of these; the embossing is just "overkill" !

Have to get up really early tomorrow to get to my market while avoiding some 30 000 cyclists taking part in the Argus Pick & pay cycle race around the Peninsula !

WOAH! What a cool color on those slick meds. Looks like something you'd see in a modern decorative bottle. But those are BIM! Wild!
