    Steve has been on a roll digging after work during the week. He writes:

Dave,
    Here is some pics from today. We dug a trash pit that was about 2 feet wide and 6 feet long and about 1 1/2 - 2 feet deep. Check out the spoon,I can't seem to get a very good pic of it. Dug a druggists bottle from Union Grove!,and a Milwaukee brewing blob in amber. Also another "VEGETABLE HAIR TONIC" from Milwaukee in perfect shape.
