Tom Askjem excavates the former lot of the Joseph Dam Hotel in Sanborn, North Dakota. #history #treasurehunting #vanlife #asmr #archaeology #wildwest #bottledigging #artifacts #metaldetecting #magnetfishing #mudlarking
I watch British mudlarkers who salvage bottles from estuaries and dumps. Colors and sizes are quite varied. Most favorite are the stone mineral water and beer bottles as well as the master inks and inkwells. Really enjoy learning how far and wide different bottled patent medicines and foods have traveled to reach the Old West. Be safe in the dig.😊
Good dig I don't remember seeing that much ash it looked like alot to me anyways, ready for the next dig, thank you it is so much fun to see what comes up, cool!!
There was a lot more ash in this one. It was likely due to the space that needed to be filled and the surplus of ashes from stoves during those times. Thanks for watching!
My wife is from dickey north Dakota. Very small farm town. Her childhood house, is still standing, and abandoned. You should go there. She attended a k-12 school on building. Nearest town 15 miles. Her school is still active today
@@TomAskjem. Growing up in the country, our septic spilled out down over the hill. We were warned to never eat from the tomato plants that grew down there. But those seeds weren’t 100 years old. It’ll be fascinating to see if he can get them to sprout.
Phosgene gas, also known as mustard gas (because of its color). Gained its deadly notoriety in the fields and trenches of WWI. Your small ampoule where possibly used for killing gophers? Handle with care.
