More from the old foundation

[rip]

Well i whent back to the foundation i found last week and found some more old bottles and several weatbacks and one indianhead.The pennys were in a swampy area and are in the worst condition i 've ever seen.The indian is so bad all i can make out is the words one cent.Sat. i found an old ginger beer,about 20 minitutes later i was back at the spot were i found it and found another less than a foot away that i missed the first time.Today ( Sunday) i was back again and about 5 feet from the same spot found a broken Harrisons columbian ink.Then i walked over to were i found the gingers and decided to poke around some and directly under(about 4 inches) were i found the gingers i found two round bottom sodas ! Boy do i need to find the dump to this spot !

Hey Mr silver ! would like that,I havent realy dug bottles in years but as a kid my parents had a barn full that we all dug.There shop was called 'The bottle barn" If i can find the dump site for this place WOW ! gotta be some good stuff judging by all i found,including some nice broken pottery and glass.HH !

With bottles that old at the site...you might consider trying to find the privy and excavating it. Bet it'd be a dandy one to dig.

As a matter of fact had my probe in the car but dident get to it yet ! I'm going back soon to look for the dump and i am already pretty sure i found the privy.I did a search on the ink and every thing says its a super/very rare ink worth around $200-$250 Holy moly dont think i'll be sleeping to well till i get back there ! Im just hoping the people who lived there wrote a LOT of letters !

promised pic's so here itiz.Not much to see pretty much just a hole in the ground(that will soon be full of snow AHHHHHHHHHHH ! ) I got there early this morning and was trying to find some of the other foundations and ran into some hunters that told me were there were 3 more.They also told me the road had been rerouted about 6 years ago so that explained alot.should be able to locate the rest now.hit only the first today as the hunters were in the other area and i wanted to find the dump if possible.No luck today other than an old silverplate spoon,but had a great sunny fall day out and about in the great outofdoors !(soon to be the great white north ! )HH all !
