Dad's turn

My son smoked me a couple of Sundays back finding that jug that I walked right by. I hit another creek today while he took his gal to Savannah for the weekend. I've found a few through the years, but they're always either broken or damaged, so I didn't hold out much hope as I started feeling around this one. Nice to be wrong once in a while. No markings, but who cares? Good ol' Crawford County.

Hooolllllllyyyy moooollllllyyyyyy, another beauty! I'm voting banner. Maybe I'm the only one, but I've never seen jugs like these before, they are absolutely beautiful, and to find them only a couple weeks apart, your son first and then you, is such a touch from the treasure gods. I'd edit this post and include a picture of the first one so that we can look at them side by side, it's so hard to pick a favourite!

What a find! I've got to take some time this summer and do some more creek walking over here.

Here you are and I really appreciate your comments. My son's find is on the left and mine is on the right.

That's another excellent jug. Just amazing that you guys have both found 1 each in such short time. The colors are fantastic

Thanks, man. I'm probably the most amazed, because it took me 42 years of looking the creek to find an undamaged one. I'm glad it didn't take my son that long.

Thanks much. 10 and 9.5 inches high, respectively and they look like about gallon size to me.
