This could be good, wait a minute it already has been good. This could be really really good. Can't wait to see what else comes out.

That is one cool dig, I love the pic of the bottles just sitting there waiting... Id guess it is a cistern, with some of the ceiling collapsed in...

Super nice! What a find. That water must be COLD. Joints probably hurt for a few days, then you can go back in. Reminds me of an old cellar I dug on my friends property, more mud than water, but it was cold and numbing. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Don...

I read this post and it sure looks like you found one hell of a hole! Good for you... I just want to put in my two cents. Please be careful... I'm not talking about cave in, but you will be going into what is referred to as a "confined space" I have done this for work and you must be careful about the air... It may be stale... and lack oxygen... or even be toxic.

There may be decomposing animal remains in there. you may need to have a spare or back-up breathing supply, back-up/safety guy and someone to be able to haul you out. Please plan accordingly. Not that you aren't, just be very careful.

Just my two cents... can't wait to see what comes out!
