Well, we are on our second pit of the year and the first was a real nice one. Produced 3 tallboy blobs in 3 new varients and also another that there have only been three dug in 5 years. All are cleaned and polished on the shelf. The second hole was a tough dig with rocks and really hard compact dirt. Produced a new 8 oz. tooled crown in a varient I've never seen and didn't have. A rolled lip barrel mustard embossed from philly and whittled, also a tall quart blob from a local brewery. All the meds were slicks and a great mason had a crack but love them iron cross ground lip ones. I'm really concentrating on finding those elusive bottles that we all dream about. This hard winter gave plenty of time for ground work, research, preperation for the new season.
Goodluck and Good diggin

we dug another today. Two new varients of a local beer. And they were tooled crowns, I absolutely luv em xspecially with the Lady leg. A tall wine with a crest came out as well as a gun. I'm going to clean them up tomorrow the gun will be in the electrolosis this weekend. I can see the 5 or so lbs I put on will come off quick.
I gotta say how great my diggin team is. They stay the course on these early ones for me. well I'll get some photos up of some of the stuff tomorrow
