Went out this morning for a walk. First find was a set with a cool brow tine. Second was a box turtle shell. Third was a dead seven pointer with a well placed arrow hole in it. Fourth was a little two point.

Just saw this and didn’t see any reply to it so I thought I’d add my two cents. This is an oak gall. A type of wasp lays an egg and a chemical secreted causes the tree to form this. The larva will chew its way out next year and turn into an adult.

Wow, hit a different part of the farm, thicket just covered in trails, tracks never seen so many trails . The spot is surrounded by green fields,with trails to/from the fields every 40-50 yards , then it transitions to woods, then another field . Farmer said deer are in those fields daily .

Zippo !!! I couldn’t believe it, walked the trails glassed the fields .

I did find another old dump, grabbed the Mrs a new set of salt/ pepper shakers ,some bottles and a 1926 lic. Plate , she wants me to go back for an old milk can that I didn’t feel like carrying out .

I think Robert Frost had something to say about that last picture.

Cool bottle finds!

Well you tell , Bobby that’s private property and to stay off it ....

Lots more bottles , I’m going back with a shovel , there’s also a half buried milk can my wife wants . We already have a few that her Dad actually used on their dairy farm , but for some reason she wants this one too .

There’s a few more dumps ,I need to dig out as well . Where you really find old bottles is digging down in old outhouses ..... Mrs Nomad says there’s one somewhere in their old yard  , not sure the new owners would  want me digging it up though .

One mans trash ,is Nomads trash !

Sure, so,far nothing older then the ‘40s mostly . I know a guy who dives for them in Canandaigua Lake ,he’s been helping with age and such , he wants to buy any Canandaigua Union bottles I find . Frankly unless these are worth big money you both can have any I find .

Are there any marks I can ID them by other the well Clyde glass works .

Here’s an older Mason Jar, that cleaned up,well, screw top, though .

All of the clyde glass I have seen is labeled as such. Here is an example of a canning type jar. They made all kind of jars/bottles as you can imagine how big the market used to be. Not necessarily rare just a peek into the past of what these old canal towns used to be like.
