Don't even let a BIIIIIIIIG hole in the ground kick your ash[;)]


Well I am going to have to say that is just what it did [:-] We went back today with intent to get to the bottom and see what was up. I started to climb down the ladder and it sunk about 3 feet real quick Dave had to grab the ladder,and me. I dont know how far it was going down but it was freaky. I threw a small shovel down,when i moved the ladder over it supported it so it wouldn't sink. Two days of hard rain on top of an already wet pit full of ash ruined it. To top it off,when I got to the bottom i was almost out of air in a matter of 10 min and I wasn't even moving around. So that was it,I like breathing[:D] We only had to fill it in half way, The home owner was happy he had room to toss all of the busted up concrete and bricks in from his demo job. So ends the Drama of "THE F@#$%^&*IN ASHHOLE" [8D]


On a good note the home owner liked all the 1920s-30s bottles,he kept the old tile we found up high in the pit to give to a friend who makes "mosaic" art out of the stuff. And he also got a place to toss all of his building scrap for free. So he was happy.
So what did we get? A lot of freakin exercise[:D] and maybe some permissions (fingers crossed)

I liked the anticipation surrounding this dig and was glad it lasted so long. I'm looking forward to your next post....hope the new permissions pay off.

did you leave a note for the next people who dig it? :)

Have you ever read the story of the Oak Island money pit?
Its about people who DIDNT know when to stop digging.
