Great Hunt!! Thank you for sharing g my story! I hope to have the video out this weekend! That hutch top is always a heartbreaker!

[@adventurearchaeology]

Man I’m glad one of us had a good week 😂😂

[@lilybee_]

I went ans aunacribed to your channel Matt. I love the narration on tpur latest video. Quality stuff! Can't wait for the video about your dive finds!

[@Mr.Hopper1]

I subscribed to see the video. Can't wait. :)

[@themobleys]

An Onion is on my bucket list! I think I’ll end up buying one before I find one though!

[@amie9416]

Thank you for taking us along Brandon. We found our first blob top bottle ever last weekend!! It’s a Wagner Brothers Tiffin,Ohio 6.5 inches with the stopper. around 1800’s I think. It’s a dream bottle to me! ❤️

[@adventurearchaeology]

Wow!! Big congrats!!!🎉🎈🎊

[@debraporch7888]

Brandon, any day that you are doing what you love is a good day. I actually like your galvanized gas can. The next time you go back to that river you'll find something sweet. Take care and stay safe. Have a good time in Tennessee.

[@karendworschack756]

That caterpillar at the beginning, is nothing to mess with, Brandon! You don't want to get stung by that! You showed it and commented on it, and I'm telling you, "Don't touch it!" Glad you listened to me! 😊

[@rondacherrie7923]

When you found the broken neck, I thought to myself, he should make those into slides for electric guitar. Then you said it. 🤯 Love your creek walks.

[@joyceclark8476]

Good morning Brandon, nice walking the creek. I’ll take a guess on the gas can. My guess is 1935 . In and around that time. Give or take a year. Wow that story about the onion bottle is fantastic. I’ll check it out when it gets posted. Black water was a Doobie Brothers Song from the seventies. Now I know what they were singing about. Thank you, have a safe trip to Tennessee. Joyce 🇺🇸❤️

[@johnnyphillips9735]

I live north of you and the paint rock river is at flood level your right we had more rain than I can remember ever love the metal detector

[@jimthompson9992]

Fun hunt Brandon with a couple nice finds. That can reminds me of the old kerosene (or coal oil) cans from back in the day. I've still got one that has that smell about it. Looking forward to that Coke hutch find! 👍🇺🇸

[@kevinhavens5279]

I’m telling ya brandon u gotta com see me we got the old glass factory in my little town and a few big bottle dumps from that glass factory plus they had an old city dump in that area as well

[@glass_and_roots]

Can I get a hint where this might be I'm doing a 5 day hunt

[@impunitythebagpuss]

A so-so day ,knee deep in a creek, is better than a good day at work! Slog on and enjoy! Love your history lessons while you wade.

[@adventurearchaeology]

No doubt!

[@WeDigIt]

Great hunt, gas can was pretty neat. Awesome adventure, as always. Have a great weekend!

[@lindsaymacpherson8782]

Love the old gas can and the old rubber stopper you might not of found what you wanted but lovely area to see for us Thankyou Brandon

[@Tony-hg9kc]

Great video . Some good finds there !!

[@judieb4165]

I saw where some folks are cleaning the bottom of bottles, reflecting locations, putting a small hole in them to make ornaments. This might be a use for those bottles broken too far down to make glasses. Love the creek walks!

[@SuperCharlie2002]

Love the channel ❤. I found an old blob top bottle yesterday, nicely embossed. Is there anyway I can send you a picture so maybe you can tell me alittle about it?

[@bluesingmusic3443]

Glad to hear you're planning on making "authentic Southern bottle neck slides" 👌👍plus they're 100+ yrs old. Ooh la la!!!!

[@marekwalencik6448]

I really like how you pick up trash and dispose of it. Thanks for a great video.

[@omaelder6279]

That bug at the beginning looks like what we called a oak worm and if so it packs a good sting

[@colleencrane4843]

As always Brandon thanks for the Adventure!😀👍

[@kimberlystewart4652]

Another Great Video.Keep them coming.

[@gayle4804]

Good finds 👏 👌

[@stanbarrett5552]

I used to watch Nicola White Mudlark. She would wade around in the mud on the river Thames and find all kinds of nifty things. She also makes art of sorts from the shtuff she finds. She has collaborated with a few KZbin folks. Anyway, she is where I first learned of "Onion Bottles" I will definitely look forward to seeing Ol'boy's Onion bottle find!! I have to say, the only time I've ever had a regulator in my mouth was several decades ago in a crystal clear creek. An old farmer here in Oklahoma had dug out a 20' to 30' hole on his land where this creek ran through. They called it " The Blue Hole" folks would go down and pay $3 or $5 to swim for the day. It had Trout, Crappie, and Bass swimming everywhere. I'm sure he stocked it with the trout. My first wife's step dad took us out to this place, the girls went off and made a spot with the kids and Stepdad and I walked down by our onesies. He explained to me the in's & out's to what I could expect. I had never been scuba diving before and was standing there thinking to myself, this is not the way I should be learning this shtuff. Never the less I followed directions and after a bit of standing above water breathing with the regulator I walked on into the water. Holy smokes I was loving it! I'm walking around on the bottom of this hole with my weight belt to keep down and digging on an ecosystem I'd only been able to admire from the surface through a mask and snorkel! I'm sitting on the bottom a few feet away from where the creek flows into this giant swimming hole watching a school of trout. Never knew trout would school like that and I'm getting a kick out of watching them appear to be playing in the bubbles created by the water flowing over the rocks and into this hole. All of the sudden those fish all grouped together in a tight school and swam to one side, then moved quickly to the otherside of the water flow, on their way across for the third time the biggest Cotten mouth snake I've ever seen flips out from nowhere and snatched one of these fish that weighed atleast a pound or so and swam off with it! Well Sir, I decided that was my cue to get out of the water and made the mistake of looking up. I started to panic and shut that down fairly quickly and started my slow walk back to where I could breath without the tank, mask, and regulator. I tell you this! Some folks believe a snake can't bite you underwater? You can call them a liar because I've seen it with my own eyes! The snake did not bite a person, but it surely did latch on to a fish and swim off with it!! There are a few reasons I'm sharing this experience with ya'll! One, if you want to start scuba diving? Don't be an idiot such as myself and stepdad inlaw!! Go get yourself some certified scuba lessons! It just might save your life! Secondly I've got to give a shout out to Anyone who dives in Blackwater and goes "Braille diving" that's absolutely insane to me!! Darn sure ain't no telling what you might put your hands on? Anyway, I apologize for the novel length comment here!! I was definitely flabbergasted by the thought of diving blind like that!! By the way, that was my first and last dive! 🤣😎🙄 Thanks for taking us with you!!

[@eileenmurphy5718]

Thank you for taking us with you on your walk today. I just enjoy watching your videos.

[@ethanl9528]

Great video can’t wait for the next one you make my day better

[@lauradoxtater1301]

Possibly another idea for broken bottle necks would be candleholders, once cut flush I could see them set in all manner of upcycled/ salvaged items or stand alone by themselves. I enjoy your outings 👍🏻

[@marciegutgsell5124]

Same here in PA it has been nonstop rain and flooding. By the time the creeks go down and I get a chance to get out it’s flooding again! It has been a very hard summer here too to find bottles in the creek!

[@stevespears3341]

Hello from Tennessee. We all have slow days. I still enjoyed the video. Have fun in Tennessee. Keep hunting and I’ll keep watching.

[@kathyhodges7054]

Thank you for this wonderful video I love slogging around the creek with you I’m excited at every little thing you find the person who suggested salt and pepper shakers out of your whiskey necks great idea pretty sure the old salt and pepper shakers just have a cork in the bottom or some type of stopper your creative Mr. Brandon I know you’ll figure it out guitar slide sounds awesome taper candleholder sounds fabulous cut the bottle necks down a little more and Make glass napkin ring holders for people like my mother who’s still use cloth napkins

[@joedenton7023]

The fuzzy worm is what we called a “pack saddle” and yes they sting! If you look at them from the side they resemble a saddle that would be on a pack animals to carry supplies.

[@warrenmink2429]

Awesome hunt , at least you found time to check it out , appreciate you sharing ! Keep up the good hunts !

[@OwlRidgeOutdoors]

Great hunt... having time out in nature is always a win

Thanks for sharing another adventure 👍

Your friend Matt should have had a feast of Crab (eating them is the best revenge) and some shrimp to celebrate the Onion bottle

[@jerrydineen2827]

I saw Matt's onion bottle too. It was beautiful!

[@reedsartofadventure]

Always fun Brother, still a cool little flask and gas can. I'll be going on a treasure hunting roadtrip all weekend hopefully I'll find something 🥴👍

[@johnnygober1332]

As always great video !!!!!

[@brucesalzwedel2323]

At 15:39......"As you know-I don't FAKE ANYTHING on this channel..." You have always said just THAT! I recently watched your video--where you were "calmly, yet visibly upset" & giving us an in-depth KZbin tutorial of all of the many ways about which "SOMEONE"--who ( ahem ! ) lives "North of Alabama"-- is continually trying to smear your character, your channel, your reputation, etc. You showed anyone / everyone who may have watched that vid how "very, very knowledgeable" you are about "everything KZbin" !! The fact that you have taken classes to LEARN how to "create more meaningful content", etc., etc., etc. shows me that you not only found a way to share your different hobbies with people who have similar interests...but, to continue to create content. (All of which takes time and $$ ! ) We have never met....but in watching your videos, I have commented a number of times over the years...and always get some kind of comment back from you. I know that your Father and myself are about the same age. You have told us that he is your "bottle mentor" ( my words). You have shown us that you strive to be, first and foremost, "the best family-man" that you can be!! You ARE VERY believable !! We can see, for ourselves, that you do "get skunked" occasionally--but then you just turn that exploration time into a continual history lesson. I have always enjoyed your history lessons! There is so, so much that I don't know.... I enjoy when you do collaborations with other "seekers" of "whatever". It was genius (on someone's part) to come up with your channel's name!! Your viewers enjoy your content!! Whatever you choose to show us--when you edit your videos-- is what we see. I have NEVER thought that any of your dump...river....creek, etc. discoveries were "plants"...I.e. PLANTED treasures!! You would have to have a whole multi-person filming crew to set-up, "discover", expound about your great "luck" in finding "yet one more purty marble--exactly right next to that whole, pristine 1850's crockery jug, that also happened to be sitting on a cache of arrowheads on that freshly-exposed riverbank" !! This is already way too long! Keep up the great work, Brandon (& Family).....and your many friends!!

[@adventurearchaeology]

Thanks Bruce for always watching! It means more than you know!

Great finds and I love the old fuel can! I would love to know when you are coming to E. Tennessee around the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg area. This is going to sound crazy but I’d (actually my husband and I) like to take you and the family out to dinner when you are out this way. Just a way to say Thank You for channel and great videos and maybe a little bit of brain picking about bottle hunting etc. Anyhow, love what you do and always looking forward to your next video!
