I suggest DD that you invest in a helmet cam and record whats going on down there. This is history in the making! At over 6700 hits shows many are interested in your story. Most of us will probably never see another thing like it!! Video's will capture it forever ! [:)]

That's like an instant collection... especially the stoneware and fruit jars. Looks like you are getting some decent jars!

19 so far and only two the same. Also found liners for about every jar made hopfully the jars are in there to. I was just getting into some older stuff when it was time to go. A couple real criers too, Saratoga Congress And a big Moxie. It,s 6 degrees out and don't dare bring anything out till it warms a bit. I'll get some pics of the inside when I do after I straighten it up a bit. Right now It's a crazy mess in there.... DD

Hi, Had a nice day here today it was sunny,no wind and allmost 10 out so... This time I brought a ladder because In case I did something stupid like plow through the pile I needed to climb out on. The ladder came in handy. First there was that pile of crock shards to move... Yep,2nd pic, It'll give me something to do In the summer. To cold for the pump but first scoop with the shovel a Eureka milk bottle w/ the bail and stopper. 3rd pic. I took a pic of the last criers,saratoga congess,Tillyer fruit jar? and a lightning. The next set of pics I'm taking you all in to see what we're dealing with here. Under those discard piles is a couple more feet of glass. Lately I've been slinging it against the back wall execpt the shards they get tossed up through the hole someplace. Found allot of fun stuff hers a pic of a green one. Break time, DD

Well after I got home and thawed out a bit I went out to the garage and got a few washed up before things started to freeze up. Ahead of time I went redneck and lit up the grill to warm up the garage a bit...wasted some gas. Anyway I found some nice blackglass,two coca marianas,butterchurn and more stoneware tops,some of the jars, I did find a whole Tillyer,Winslaw jar later,A putman and that greenie. It's supose to go to the 20's tomorrow so I might run the pump again and get to the bottom of this yet Happy digs... DD
