Hey there Brandon, hope all is well with you. Sure the longer videos sound fine. Your talking doesn’t bother me. Definitely, love the idea on the creek aquarium. Very creative. I agree great way to display the broken bottles. Have a wonderful week. Joyce 🇺🇸❤️😎🐢
I think that elephant hutch would be a perfect candidate for a part of a windchime or you might could have your friend who does the glasses cut out the elephant and make an ornament or something of it. Also, I love the idea of the display aquarium, I would definitely love to see it if you do it.
I prefer the longer videos. I am an old glass and bottler lover from waaaaay back also a metal detectorist since the '80's so that is what brought me to your channel. I stayed and subscribed because of your wonderful online personality, the wealth of knowledge you share and the beautiful outdoors you share with us each week. The shorter formats seem to just get me relaxed and smiling and then they end!! Seriously I will gladly take whatever you can get out to us but really prefer the longer videos. The aquarium sounds awesome!!
Fun video Brandon! I, for one, enjoy your longer creek ramblings and chatting...keep it up!👍👍 Gotta say, I was really hoping for some really great, rare bottles...maybe next time. They're out there waiting for you...even that river crashed Coke hutch!
Yes I would be a little nervous after watching the beaver video also lol. Thanks for sharing the hunt and finds. Good luck, happy hunting and take care.
...an internal stopper patented in 1879, and mostly gone by 1920. I have heard of ABM Hutchs from Puerto Rico, but never have seen one. They were difficult to clean for refilling, but not as hard as marble stoppers that remained in British Empire countries & Japan to the present.
@@bluesingmusic3443 There are some Hawaiian Codds, and I've dug 3 broken ones from Los Angeles. A British bottler married to a Tahitian woman lived and operated the Riverside Soda Works for a while before returning here in 1896 and opening Hawaiian Soda Works. He used the Riley inside screw, another British patent. He used Riverside Codds & Rileys to begin bottling at once, making these "Hawaiian" bottles too. I've only dug broken Codds so far.
You are absolutely correct. No one can keep everything they find as far as bottles go. You need to come to Western Kentucky and visit, we WILL go bottle hunting.
Todd there is a very fine line on giving away too much history on an area and then tons of people show up haha! I’m having a difficult time now with so many people starting to search in the same area!
That would be cool about the aquarium you can put one of the small buried air hoses inside a couple of them to make it look cool!!!👍👍You could even make that a introduction for your channel 👍there is not much more soothing than looking at a fish tank with cool stuff in it with bubbles 👍
I saw that Aquachigger video too- it was crazy! Love the longer videos and your "rambling" lol though I don't see it as rambling. I also like the idea of the aquarium and would love to see it!
Brilliant idea with the bottles in the aquarium!!! I think that could be a side business for you....to sell to pet shops or better yet, the people who install large aquariums for people and businesses. They will use them for props or aqua decor/theme. Having fun looking for bottles/remnants for extra money.
I like the longer video. It gives more of a feeling of what you’re doing even with the hits and misses. Cool finds that round! That aquarium idea sounds killer, If you do plan on doing that I would personally love to see it and how’s it’s made. Thanks bro for the great videos.
I love you those hutch bottles as u call them! Never heard of those before and would love to have one in my collection!! And I love the aquarium idea as well and how you look for things for your wife, my husband does that too!! Lol and I love the way you ramble! It gives the videos a more personal feel so keep it up please!! 👍👍👍👍
With luck you could find a civil war rifle with the bayonet still attached and then when the rabid beavers come to attackin you can fend them off with old the war relic.
I enjoy a little longer video in fact you could go on n on for my taste LOL. Your so right when that sun comes out you really can see the bottom of the creek. So hoping you would of found a jewel but can’t always have our way, right. I was amazed at the thickness of some of the hutch glass that were broken. What a shame on the jug. Some day you’ll be lucky to find the whole thing. Wouldn’t that be amazing. ♥️♥️😊👍👍
Us fellow southerners don't hear a southern accent. I kinda wish that just for a moment, I could be from some wheres else, so that I could hear what others hear, when we talk. If that makes any sense. There's a woman here in Dothan, that has a very deep sa-thin accent, and also talks very slow. Maybe that's how others hear us.
@@adventurearchaeology I was raised in OKC, but born in Iowa. I used to get such a kick when I'd go back to Iowa to visit, the locals (very friendly very nice people btw) would ask me where I was from, I'd say "Oh I was born here, in WaterLOO (accent on the Loo like they do)" they'd look confused as my drawl has never left me, despite living all over the country. Then I'd smile & say but I was raised in Oklahoma. I've lived in Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, & Tennessee, among other places.
Great vid and brill watching this in the UK and seeing all those coke bottles I'd keep being thrown back in ! Happy hunting and great you watch Chiggs as well.
Love the scenery where you are and the fish that followed you and YES love the idea of the fishtank sounds great Thankyou Brandon for another lovely video
Like the longer ones and ramble on man....ramble on 🤠. My maw maw's were from Bama but never heard that saying. Sorry bout the hutch.....hopefully soon you'll find your golden egg 💗🕊️
It's interesting that your have an interest in aquaria. Years ago I did quite a lot of that, including introducing some South American cichlids into the US market back in the mid-1980s that may have had some nefarious origins. Be sure to check with your state wildlife agency before stocking a tank with native fish. It is often forbidden. Yes, it's fine all the time, but you have a platform and would make a good example.
I found two of those stoppers in the creek that I have been scouting out here in Illinois not sure if they had hutches around here back in the day but if not maybe stoppers from a different style bottle I’m getting ready as we speak to head back out there again see what I can find today with my vanquish 540 that I got off Heath from history seekers great detector for real
First video I've seen of yours, and your doing great dude! Love the long video and your fish tank idea is great would love to watch you do that! Can't wait to watch more videos! Just got a new follower!
That’s still a great day on the creek man , l like this format , and that’s a great idea with the tank , maybe a good bit of extra work for you though.
Hello from PA. You are keeping my husband busy while he is out on disability from work, so Thank you. I would love to get him a glass set made from bottles he collect from our area, could you please give me the person that makes these glasses. Thanks kindly
As a youth in Kentucky, it was mam-maw and pap-paw, with the emphasis on the first syllable. I've never seen a spelling, but that's how it sounded. As for the length, go for it, whatever works for you. Personally, I like the longer videos and I agree with others who think it would be boring without your commentary. I love your accent.
It all depended in Oklahoma where I grew up. We called my namesake "Granddad", however my Mom wanted to be called "Granny" as did my late wife. My grandkids call me Papa. There were "Maw Maw" "Paw Paw" Grandpappy, etc. Actually my oldest granddaughter called me Papas, with an S. My late wife's fam came from Georgia. Anyway. To me the sweetest words are when my littlest one used to tell me "Papa I love you a whole big much!" It just doesn't get any better.
@@bluesingmusic3443 You are so right!!! As for me, my first Granddaughter started calling me Ma and now everybody calls me Ma, even my own kids, especially when they are talking to their kids.
I could be wrong but I think it's against law to do the aquarium thing with fish from the creek. I COULD BE WRONG!! But I would LOVE to see that!!! Also, love your videos! I live in Alabama, right outside Birmingham. So, you are usually close to my area. I want to do this so bad!! Lol
Sehr schöne Flaschen holt ihr da raus👍🏻. Aber tut ihr auch die Flaschen Reste auch mitnehmen,oder Last ihr sie wieder in den Fluss? Bernd Frankenland ⛏🇩🇪🙋🏼♂️
Funny you mention fish tank decorations, because I added some old telephone pole insulators to my fish tank as cool fish caves. I am sure a hutch piece would be cool in a fish tank. Are you going to put the 🐘 on ebay?
Hey Brandon I just subscribed and im in NW Georgia close to the Alabama line and I have 2 1923 coke bottles in great condition ...I get the one's that have the label embossed on the bottle with the bottling Co plant location on the bottom im an avid Coke Collector.love your video's very educational Thanks for taking us along...
I think by you walking and talking, it’s almost like listening to a buddy. Longer videos are fine with me. Yeah the fish tank idea is a good one. I think a 55 gallon would be perfect. Just make sure it’s longer than taller. I’ll tell you what Brandon, if you score a Coca Cola hutch, you’ll be hearing a yeee haw from California!
Hi all , I wouldn't mind a few of those broken bottles, use them as a scoops?..... Use the neck part as the handle .. One for flour,, one for sugar etc.... I like you talking, it would be boring if you didn't talk. I like learning what make and year the bottle is.. plus adding a bit of history about the areas you go too as well.. Cheers all xxoo Longer the posts are the better ..✌🐨🦘🇭🇲
It appears to me that you should be finding arrowheads while you are walking the creek and I've never seen you pick one up. I do bottles and arrowheads at the same time. One is as good as the other to me.
Love you channel. I found a Coke a Cola bottle. It is kinda heavy. And it says Los Angeles on the bottom. It is a 6 oz. Bottle and no white letters on it. How old might be?we call them gully washers.
I've only dug one Christmas Coke, a Reno Nevada. Do you have Codd marble stopper bottles in the South? In 2019 I found a bunch of different broken Hawaiian ones from 1893 & before. I found 3 broken ones from Los Angeles, and the ones from Riverside are "Honorary Hawaiian" bottles as they were used here by the Hills family, whom lived in Tahiti, Hawaii, Riverside, back to Hawaii. I have heard of blank bottom 1915s from Wahiawa & Maui. Ketchup-the Irish spice. I found a tooled Chinese lemon sauce from San Francisco in Waipahu once.
I think there are some in the Northeast, and any "British" places. I have one from Australia, a gift of my Sister whom found it in a shop in NorCal. All the Hawaiian & L.A. ones I've found were broke, leaverights from 1980s diggers. In your videos, there are no leaverights, you try an clean litter, old & new of the creeks. I bought a few small paperback self-published bottle books from the 1960s at the Reno show once, and a glossary had leaverights- leave 'er right there- bleach bottles, slicks.
That fish most likely got banged around in the flood waters. We got hit hard up here too and I’ve been seeing a lot of injured fish swimming around the creeks.
