[treasurefiend]

Today was too nice of a day to stay inside. I started at 8am and hunted till noon. All of these finds were just lying on top of the ground or just partially buried. I walked around the whole site, it is huge, like atleast the size of a city block!!! I bet there is a lot of older stuff, I can't wait to start diggin!!! Here is what I found. LOL - I had over 25 min of video that I had to widdle down to fit on youtube so that is always a pain. here is my finds.

Wow! Great video Those bottles are wonderful!

I had no idea that place was so huge. If you ever need help in excavating
that spot, let us know. . . I'll bet you could sell 20'x20' claims and retire

Take care bud!

What a cool spot!! Great finds!

I found an intact Dr. Ellis Waving Fluid bottle near an old RR right of way in a grove by us. It was a little different style in that it said "Dip the comb" but didn't have a pic of the comb. Your's is older for sure.

Thanks for the video!

N I C E V I D E O TF.............That last Aqua color glass thing in your video,is an insulator....Found usually around Train,& Phone lines..........There is a big collectors market for them,even on E-Bay, when found in unbroken condition.......Always enjoy watching your videos.........
B. T. W. ...........I have tried to shoot video,and pics with my cell phone,and even @ 2 MP they come out crummy.........I have a Great Panasonic 5 MP Camera that shoots great Macro close ups,and has a 10x optical zoom,but is WAY too bulky to carry around while searching.... What kind of equipment do you use to shoot your videos and pics? Also do you use some kind of devise to hold it ? Thanks Dave

Man, you gotta goldmine there! Great vid's

In your video you kept saying something to the effect, "If I don't fall in". Was it on a steep ravine or what were you afraid of falling into? Those are some neat bottles. That dump was a great find. Almost looks like a beauty shop or pharmacy dumped them there? Monty

There certainly were a lot more than we could see when the snow covered the ground! Cool video.

There were places with frozen over standing water, when ever I said that I was probably right on the edge of the ice. I just didn't want to slip and lad in the water or worse yet get cut too bad as I would have to hike out just to get to my car, the weather was only like 27* when I shot the video.

Hey TF what model Panasonic video cam do you have,,,,,and how many M.P. is it ?

[treasurefiend]

Off the top of my head I think its a 4 MP, as for the model I would have to check it when I get home from work. I got it about 3 years ago from Bestbuy.
