Hmmm,I was helping a childhood friend look for his lost dog in the woods....We were about 12...Happened into this clearing (with fresh diggings) A victorian dump! this was during the 70's....Lot's of people had the bottle bug back then. I spotted a deformed bromo near a dirt pile,...Picked it up and put it in my pocket...Never looked back...54 now. []

You don't hear that kind of story everyday! See. You help others and the bottle god helps you!

I tore an old house down for a guy for the material in the 70s , talk about a real blunder . Turned out the wood in the house was not even worth trying to reuse , had no idea as to how old it was , had a log foundation I found out too late , oh well , lesson learned . Anyway , the plus side was that I found some old bottles under the flooring and that was my beginning of my adverture through the world of glass .

My dad showed me the glory of digging at the Southern Pacific Railroad in Sacramento, Ca. Which was a late 1700's dump. I have so many exciting memories of those years. I remember many times wondering if my dad realized I was only 8. He would explain the details of digging and finding, as if I was a college student. lol . I was always a daddy's girl and through out the years this has always been away to keep up close. Now, I'm 29 and enjoy digging as much as I did when I was a child!
