We were off on another hunt at a new site Rob and me. To set the stage of this day we had receved permission to hunt an area that we hoped would produce some good finds.The area was a very popular spot at the turn of the century for swimming and picnics.It is on Lake Erie near a small country town.To get to the old beach area we had to climb down very carefully a cliff about fifty or so feet to the beach area.The cliff face was overgrowen with trees and brush. It took us a while to get down but with luck we made it to the prommised land.There was lot's of old debris it was a great area .Rob set out to detect for coins and i set out to find a bottle pit and dig for antique bottles.After about two hours we took a break.Rob had found some really nice old coins. 1870s 1890s . I had found an early garbage pit 1900s to 1920s.I dug about 4 or 5 nice bottles and said to rob i wish i could have found an early medical bottle 1880s.It was starting to get late when we realised we still had to climb back up the cliff to get to the car.Off we went. what a climb with all our stuff.Near the top we took a break i said to rob i wish i had found that one bottle . As we talked i went to put my pack on and to my amazment, off to the right coverd in some leaves was a bottle it was a medical bottle- sky blue and in mint shape- a real keeper.I almost fell down the cliff jumping up and down with joy. Rob couldn't belive i had found that bottle .All the way home i laughed so hard i was sick. The bottle dates around 1880s. We always hunt together and have some really great times detecting .Rob has found some really rare coins but that day i found that antique bottle was a special day . Jim 
But even when some days draw us blanks, it's still a treat to get out with my bud.
.sounds you two had a great day.i like those clored bottles,especially cobalt.
