Back to reality

Nothing super exciting today since I’m back to searching for new dumps and pit dumping. Lots of time finding nothing but I had a few hectic moments. Some of the scenery was absolutely amazing and these places were absolutely loaded with pits. Mostly zip tabs-1970 cans. Found tons of Yukon club cans which I don’t find often. Trasnsitional era with lots of strohs/Drewrys but all common variations.
Last spot of the Day was the best. Had a hunch to look across from an old homestead and found several small piles of 30’s trash. Some piles were just food cans and some were mostly beer cans. Even found a quart cone. Hopefully it cleans.

He was a pervert. There to just throw beads at girls tubing on the river. River was full of people on the banks and loaded with tubers. Even a huge fist fight broke out down there between two other groups of tubers.

Quart is a keeleys half and half. Very unlikely that I’ll keep it. Very rough but just had to keep and identify it

Finished product. Still have a few more to clean. Nice to find a dull gray Drewrys. That was the first readable can I found. Keeleys needs wd-40 bath and to the shelf it goes. Diet ginger ale is a flat.

Cleaned the rest. I’ll keep the best export can. They are the older patent pending top cans that’s the only reason why I kept them. Bud is a patent pending top and is a variation I need. Also keeping the soda can, which is a juice top.

I didn’t take an after picture of it. Smashed it to pieces and threw it away as it was too rough
