I’d loved to have been a part of a dig like this. I’m 71 and not too well, so my time has past. I can live vicariously through the Crick Diggers though!
Judy, really appreciate you if you would email me your address I’d like to send you something? Or if you have Facebook please send me a friend request. 😊 thanks for your continued support sister lady.
I love watching this. Last summer the neighborhood kids dug at a burn pit in my backyard and found square nails and hinges. My home is 120+ years old so I was not surprized in what they found. They had a great time. We can not wait until this summer to continue. Our village is 300 years old so no telling what we will find.
Guys .... 1st time watching you " YOU HAVE 💜 AND SOUL " Truly felt the passion and pure respect for vintage glass and the thrill of the dig 🍾 Bless you guys for sharing the joy !!!
If you told the folks that drop the bottles in the outhouse 100 plus years ago ..... that some day someone will be down in the hole digging them up! They’d get a good laugh 😂
Had fun watching you Guys. I live in Maine around Fry Mt. Found dumps around rock walls. The best thing I found was a set of old glasses setting on a rock and an inkwell at the base of the same rock. I looked for the for the pen, but never found it. Walking in the same woods, I found a flat rock with old wagon pieces. My questing is how do you stop. I can go all day and night when I find a dump. And I'm 72.
My parents purchased an old ranch site developed in the 1885 . Has a historic Mill site. While there digging around the old mill site I found the outhouse. Need to get back and do some digging in side the outback house. Found a bunch of very old beer bottles while working the old fence lines. Some nice old tools around the corral area sitting in new fence post about 2 or more feet down. Love this stuff.. I was there off and on now and then but whenever I get there always finding stuff. The early pioneers had a dump site which was covered in poison oak and sumac but thanks to my Indian blood does not seem to affect me so pulled up a whole bunch of really cool kitchen tools pots, pans, bottles. Had everything soaking in my kitchen sink so always working towards clean show pieces. Need to be back up there and go digging in the old mill site outhouse.. i think should be some nice late 1800'S down in the hole. I love finding the square nails off the old ranch site of 3000 acres donation land claimed. The cousin's next door are Oregon Century old plus ranchers still holding there claims. Now into the fourth generation of family working ranchers. It is cool seeing that state award out on the county road. My photo logo is at the old Mill Site Pond area taken 16 years ago maybe more.
I love all your videos and your information ! Keep up the good work. My wife and I watch your vids all of the time.I collect insulators and minor in bottles.
71 year old. You are awesome. I am pretty much oin tha same shape. 2 tours to iraq and 1 I cant talk about. Hell, I'm only 61 and feel like 91. I gave my all but I should have left a little gas in my tank for future use
Oh WOW now that was a great dig guys, just cant beat the early pontil era. The flask, spitoon & the cobalt blobb are just amazing. I enjoyed that so much im gonna watch it again. Just incredible guys, well done.
Hello 👋 from New York you guy's found some amazing finds my favorite definitely was the spitoon that was absolutely Beautiful Thank You for bringing me along with you guy's I can't wait to see what you guy's find next 😀 😊
You guys are super diggers ! I love how you all try so hard to not break any goodies and how you share the enthusiasm with one another it's intoxicating and memory invoking and thank you! Keep at it you battle ax 's✌✌✌
It was awesome of them to invite you guys to dig those early pits. Just some straight up killer finds. This dig had me on the edge of my seat just wondering what would come out next. Stellar video and beautiful artifacts.👍👍👍☮️
awesome finds!!! deeper the hole gets, the more nervous I get. ex-fiance was firefighter - on trench, fast water, & trench rescue. if trench or hole collapses with someone in it, the first thing they do on scene is call family or whoever victim wants to say goodbye to. no chance they can dig you out before weight of dirt suffocates you. know everyone's gonna jump me for being a karen and i'm so not trying to be one. a sheet of plywood cut in half and a cpl 2x4s could save one of your lives.... (climbs off soapbox) your digs are so freaking cool. i own a piece of property that sits between 2 creeks, it had a bar/saloon on it around 1900. thinking about it in a whole new light now. lol good hunting, guys!
I was thinking the same thing! I worked for a natural gas company on the construction side for a few years, we would install new gas lines and they beat trench safety into us so much it became natural, now when I see trenches that aren’t sloped or no shoring it makes me super nervous! They showed us some horrible videos of collapsed trenches with people stuck inside and the aftermath, I guess when you see how fast a person can lose their life and how horrible they look when finally uncovered it really sticks in the brain! The absolute worst were the poor folks that were pulled out of the hole by frantic coworkers with heavy equipment, they usually came out in pieces 🤢 so please be careful folks! Awesome bottles, I usually spend a hour or so every day taking my dog for a walk and digging in old trash sites here in AZ 🤘
Thanks brother mans I do appreciate the input and you are right we should definitely be a lot safer. I can’t argue with you about it at all. I do constantly monitor the stability of the hole for cracks, loosening dirt, large objects overhead and when I deal it to unsafe to venture further I spend a day or two removing all the overhang and getting back to the original dug wall and continue the process all over again.
I love watching you guys pulls these out and then show the cleaned version the glass colors are absolutely beautiful from those times. I have a wine bottle I found in a cave in Jamaica that is from 1760, and it is the black green glass.
Dang, guys, the umbrella and igloo inks and the cobalt Elmira squatty are amazing! Lovely old spittoons, so many beautiful old bottles...thanks for another awesome video!💖
Corey and Travis, Congrats on one great dig - you guys are the real deal. I’ve been digging up here in New England for a lot of years (55) in all kinds of places. I’m usually jumping fences vs digging under them!
Wow! You lads know your stuff! But I’m learning the jargon...and different bottle names😁 great video...it always looks so cold and snowy where your digging! 🥶 😁👍
Just started watching your channel. We were in Lonacony (sp) last summer. That old iron furnace is amazing. Thanks for sharing your digs. Buy yourself a Garrett metal detecting wand. You can check out your digs for coins/rings/metals you might otherwise miss. I love digging old abandoned dumps too.
Travis & Corey such an amazing video. The suspense was killing me, I can't imagine how it was for you. The spittoon you both pulled out were spectacular, is there any way they can be repaired? Or is it worth it? What is the value of a whole one? You both are blessed to be given the opportunity to fulfil your dreams. It takes hard work and determination and you both have it. You both are living your dreams, especially you Travis. Y'all take care and be safe.
Thanks sister lady, hope you are doing good. It was an incredible weekend of digging with some great people we now call friends. You will more then likely see some future digs with those guys. Like William said they are not super desirable although I cannot for the life of me figure out why. Thanks for your continued support and hop everything is going good with you. We all miss you in the auctions as well. 😊
Great dig guys. Really loved the yellow marble, it looked like it was glowing. I bet Rocks Cousteau would put that one in the middle of one of his frames. Keep up the great work, love watching your videos.
I use to do this. Some real nice finds there guys. Surprised you didn't find more marbles. We found them often most likely from being swallowed at one time by a kid.
That broken eagle broke my heart. That was a beauty. Pontil age puts don't pop up very often. We're right outside of Pittsburgh in a great early area and a lot of times we will find a few pontil bases at the very bottom and everything above might be eighties so they had too be heavily dipped or reopened up and dug out to reuse 30 or 40 years after they were first used and that sucks.
Man, I'm jealous of yalls weather. This entire week here in Arkansas is pushing 80 degrees every day. Coming from someone who absolutely HATES hot weather, that colf and snow looks so refreshing
Ahhh ya brought bk memories. I used to drive out where I grew up here in Akron ohio,portage lakes in a place called cottage grove.. I remember as a kid of about 8 yr. A neighbor dwn the road named Annie sigler she died with me at and her 81. Her husband Harvey died when I was 4.my mom was frnds to both. I think Annie's house was the oldest in the grove ....iam 64 now,but I remembered this place in my 30s. Due to my rock an gem an treasure mag subscription. They used to throw trash over the hill with bottles ECT.my mom said if it wouldnt burn it went over the hill,an no indoor toilet but an outdoor that I remembered..my number one find on the hill was Moses Atwood jaundice bitters 45%alcohol by volume..hmm..people purchased olot of remedy med during prohibition .... Cheap an easily accessible,legal...anyway 1 day I decided to chk out where the out house used to be,I found it but only dug about a foot. I did well,I have a corked (without cork of coarse) Clorox bottle an a perfect Akron pure dairy cottage cheese glass container. I think of the things I did when I watch this and I ty,for filming and sharing....connie
Want some nice bottles?? Go up the Kennebec river up in Maine at low tide. There's tons of very, very old bottles. Up by Pittston Maine the shore had a big dump. I've found 1800s bottles with contents inside still.
You guys are freakin' awesome brother man . I enjoy all your videos...need to get on more of your auctions. Let me know if you ever find any pontilled Tennessee stuff. Ttyl
That was such a fun trip. That privy had lots of incredible stuff and many many criers . Can’t wait to go back this year and see what treasures await. Thanks for your continued support
