A quick Colonial helping...

Man Just got back from the beach with Sentinel & Rob drank a bunch of beer and had a blast! Here is a few things that I found at an early site of mine over a week ago.
The spigot is cast brass and super deep, at least 37" buried under 2 minelab etracs. No it was about 16" in Red clay thought Id never get it. Thanks for checking it out!

Look for a handle that might be somewhere nearby and you'll have it a nice and complete 19 century barrel tap.

James,
Nice job on the barrel tap. Well worth the dig.
You three can use it on a keg next time you get together.
Congrats,
Doug

LMAO I had a blast, we'll definitely have to do it again soon. That barrel tap is awesome and that White's sniffed it WAY down there which is an accomplishment in that Red Soil! Like the buttons as well, there's something else hiding in there for you! I'll give you a call tomorrow I may be going to Hawaii next week..

Ouch...brutal on those e-tracs, but Mike did say your machine performs better in that soil down there. The soil is different here and we seem to have the opposite affect here. I like those old barrel spigots, was told by a fellow t-netter to pay attention to those since sometimes they were only located on tavern sites. Hit 90 degrees and very humid here today, ya getting scorched down there right now? Nice finds James and good luck finding more good stuff in that red cement.

Wow that is a nice spigot James. Looks like you had a good time buddy.
