MARBLES GALORE & MORE ICY RIVER FINDS! MUDLARKING / RIVER PICKING W MASS RIVER PICKERS

[@susancousins8766]

What a Marbelous Day Kathy! Love the shaker with the lid. Nice skeleton key! You had a cold 🥶, but sweet day so far 😊. Enjoy your weekend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜

[@massriverpickers]

Thank you! You too!👋😃😎

[@angelamillard6418]

Yay! Marbles! Can't wait for part 2❤❤❤

[@massriverpickers]

Part 2: MORE MARBLES!! (And some bottles, and some other odd finds) I think we found 26?🤔 marbles that day? Sorry to make you wait, but it would have been a very long video (and I would not have finished photographing and editing in time Lol) That's what happens when you're out marble hunting instead of staying home and editing. 😁💖

[@amandabell8827]

Hi Cathy and Drew, wonderful video! All those marbles, so beautiful! I love the key too 😁💖x

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Amanda! Glad you enjoyed the video.. Part 2 will not disappoint! Sooo many marbles, and the key is one of the nicest I have found. I still can't wait for warmer weather though! 🥶 Smashing ice to uncover dishes was a new experience. Anyway... Take care, be well, and God bless! 🙏✝️💐🌞💮

What a fabulous marble hunt! You found some good ones.

[@massriverpickers]

Thanks! And I got your marble email. I will answer you from there. -Cathy😁💖

Wowww...so many fabulous finds 🎉 can't wait for part 2! 😊

[@massriverpickers]

Thanks! Sorry to make you wait to see the rest of the finds, but it would have been a very long video!! Many more marbles, and some bottles, in Part 2. We waited sooo long for this river to go down, but it was worth the wait! 😁💖

[@markmcintosh9448]

Nice marbles and love the 1940’s plate’s

[@massriverpickers]

Thank you Mark! Those plates don't have a single chip, and it was definitely an experience, having to smash the ice to retrieve them! 😄 -Cathy

[@lizmbrad]

Drew, you crack me up. Yay 🎉 we can go home now. Lol We all know Cathy isn't budging. Y'all just got there. You found some wicked marbles miss lady.

[@massriverpickers]

😄 Even Drew didn't want to go home that day.. so many finds it was non-stop! That is why it's a two-part video! I think we found 26 marbles that day, plus some bottles and other stuff. It would have been a VERY long video! 😁💖

[@masonmercmetaldetecting]

All your spots are going to be awesome this year after all the massive flooding and erosion the Northeast suffered in January.

[@JEFFREYHULLJr.-ps8nr]

Hello Cathy and Drew. This is a awesome video and Lew and I enjoyed watching it. So many nice marbles so far. 🙂We like the one you mention and show with the good sized bubble in it. Nice dish finds and it was nice to see they matched some of your porcelain dishware. What a nice old KINSELLA shaker you found! 🙂 That early old Eagle key was one of the best keys we have seen somebody find on a video and mudlarking hunt. . Lew has a nice collection of old keys and that looks like a old skeleton key from the late 1890's. 🙂 Lew and I are glad you both had gone out mudlarking together and we are looking forward to watching part two of this day. We wish you both good health and luck. Take care and happy hunting to the both of you.----Jeffrey Hull Jr. (Jeff & son Lew)

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Jeff & Lew, Glad you enjoyed the video. Sorry you have to wait for Part 2, but it would have been a very long video otherwise. (Plus having to clean and photograph 30+ finds). We had not been to this area in about nine months, and had lots of storms to restock the river with marbles. That is why there more finds than usual. I love that key 🗝️ too! One if my fav finds that day! Part 2 will have at least as many marbles plus a few nicer bottles, that we did not already have! It was COLD out there, but we'd waited sooo long for low water, we went anyway. 🥶 Thanks always for watching and commenting! Spring is coming! -Cathy (& Drew)😃😎👍

Watch Rocks Costeau and Hollander Mud bagger, they love marbles!😊

[@massriverpickers]

Yes! We are subscribed to both of those channels. I wish I had RC's energy!! 😛 And you've gotta ❤️ Squirrel Man! 🐿️. Rocks is a great guy. He did a LOT to help our channel early on. We will never forget that! Thanks for watching and commenting! -Cathy😁💖

Hello Cathy and Drew! Drew! It took you only 1:10 to find a marble BUT it seems that also this year you can t go home quickly hahaha.! ❤ from Mytilene Lesvos Island Greece. Goodnight!

[@massriverpickers]

Hello Maria! 👋😃 Good to hear from you! Haha 😅 Even Drew didn't want to go home after a while.. too many finds! We waited months for the river level to go down, but all the storms helped to "re-stock" the river with beautiful marbles! It was worth the wait. I am looking forward to some warmer spring weather and longer days though.. just around the corner! (We hope) BTW, I'm going to look up your Island, to see what it's like where you are! ❤️ from USA!

[@sheilaedquist9552]

Wow that river is very productive! Thanks for sharing.

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Sheila, Yes it definitely produces the finds... But not always this many!! This is because we had months of storms and high water. New old objects get exposed once the water level goes down. Still, this stretch does have a good variety of finds, to keep things interesting... When it is low and accessible. -Cathy💖

[@kristinhaislett9365]

Fantastic marble finds! Thanks for sharing!

[@massriverpickers]

Thanks for watching!😁💖

[@larisaz6967]

Nice lark! Loved the shaker and of course, all the marbles! Why do so many marbles end up in the river?! Look forward to part 2. Cheers from PA, Larisa

[@massriverpickers]

Hello Larisa! Glad you enjoyed the video. Part 2 (next week) will not disappoint! People dumped trash into this river years ago. Some items break down over the years, or were burned, but glass generally survives. We occasionally find other toys, doll parts, etc. but for some reason, there are more marbles in this stretch of river than we have seen most other places. Some say "slingshot" as a reason: kids shooting marbles into the river... but I think many were just disposed of, with the trash. Do you ever watch "Rocks Cousteau" channel? He digs marbles in an old town dump every day!! Great channel! So we are not showing you ALL the trash we find in the river. Just mostly the good stuff! -Cathy😁(& Drew 😎👍)

[@granvillewooster7673]

Great video thank you so very much for sharing 👍👍❤️

[@massriverpickers]

Thank YOU for sharing in our fun! 😃😎

[@masonmercmetaldetecting]

Drew and Cathy you guys have some incredible spots! Mason told me the other day larking was the only treasure hunting we hadn’t tried yet and he really wanted to try. Got some good info on an old mill pond, we went and he finally found some marbles! Including a few clay Benningtons! We love watching you guys hunt! Let us know if you ever want some company, we only live 30 mins from Massachusetts up here in NH. Another awesome video guys, love watching!

[@massriverpickers]

Hi There, We enjoy watching you guys too! Congrats to Mason on finding some Benningtons! Once you've been mudlarking a while, you will start finding stuff even when you're not looking. Your eyes will always be in search mode 👀. BTW, did you see last week's video? Probably my best find ever (gold crucifix). I put a close-up pic on our community page. Even found a crotal bell and an 1800's silver coin that day.. and I would have been happy with just the marbles!😄 I will be metal detecting some more on the "old farm" this year. It is near NH border, but conditions are challenging. I have been hunting that place for decades, but am still finding some keepers. Tons of trash though (200 years worth). Let's keep in touch, and maybe we can collaborate one day. -Cathy 😁

[@masonmercmetaldetecting]

@@massriverpickers that sounds great! I will definitely have to watch that episode for sure!

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

I love the marbles, tiny works of art, each one! I wonder how those beautiful Limoges plates got in the river? I can't wait for Part 2, Cathy!❤

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Cynthia! I hated to have to end this video half way through, but it would have gone too long. I think we found 26 marbles, plus bottles and other stuff that day. AND we went back again yesterday! Those Limoges plates may have been part of the wedding stuff that was dumped.. sadly. Even the wedding album and photos of the children were thrown away (disturbing 😬). I need to go back for that lid though. More marble hunts on the way! -Cathy😃💖😎👍

[@susancousins8766]

At 11:01 I believe you may have missed a blue marble, I saw it before you picked up the orange/white marble.

[@massriverpickers]

I saw that too (while editing the video!) You have good eyes 👀! I wonder if we got that one on the way back, or if it's still out there?🤔 I was wondering if anyone else noticed that! Lol 😂 -Cathy💖

Hi There! Did you see last week's marble hunt? Find of a lifetime in that one.. great marbles too! We did take some time off in January, but have been back to weekly, the past three weeks now. As for this river.. we do not always have access. Water is low now, so we're out there! Sorry for such a long break, but nice to know we were missed! More marble hunts on the way! -Cathy😁💖

[@anthonymessina2834]

Some spectacular marbles, Kathy!!! But those plates are absolutely beautiful!!! What are the odds you would find not one, but three?!!!! And a couple years after finding the other pieces?!!!!

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Anthony! I suspect that whole set of china was thrown away. We found (a couple of years ago) the teapot, and a soggy wedding album 😥. So the china may have been a wedding gift. Not a chip on any of those dishes! I need to go back for that lid though. BTW, did you catch last week's marble hunt? I am still in shock over that cross! ✝️😯 Anyway, Part 2 of this vid will go up next week. (In case you don't get the notification). -Cathy💖

Wow, the plates are a good find and to match the set of two to go with it. Some nice marbles.I just found a blue and red one like the one you found. The red patch looks to be brushed on, on the one I found.

Hi There! I didn't even realize, at first, that the plates were a match for the teapot. I need to go back for that lid! I wonder how many other pieces are out there?🤔 Sounds like you found a very attractive marble! Did you find a good hunting ground? -Cathy 👋😃

[@Luciddreamer007]

🧊 Nice Ice breaker ! Cool marbles …. The key 🔑 was my favorite find - I watched with my daughter and she was interested, she liked the old key so I directed her to the hearth over her grandparents fireplace to a collection of about 12 old keys and she said I love them and snagged ‘em …. I’m happy that The DrewMeister & The Huntress were able to enjoy a beautiful day ! I can’t wait till the next bottle show/flea market !!!! ✌️❤️ 🎸 🙏💥🤖😎 0

[@massriverpickers]

Hi Christopher! Ice breaker Lol 😂 The key was one of my favorites that day as well! 🗝️ One of the nicest I have ever found... Very well preserved. Nice that your daughter enjoyed watching, and ended up with some keys! Lol😄. I was glad Drew could join me that day. He will be retiring soon. That will give us more opportunities to go out! I do have a few more flea market vids to edit yet... But an early Marble Season put everything else on hold 😁 💖 Unfortunately, we are losing one of our fav flea markets. Hollis NH has sold out to developers. ☹️ We're really going to miss that one. But we still have the Rowley Mass flea to go to.. and the bottle shows. There will be a few nice bottle finds in Part 2 of this video, in addition to more marbles. -Cathy 🙂

It kinda looks like someone cleared the dinner table into the river. Maybe there was a fight, and the wedding pictures were the next thing to go?

[@massriverpickers]

We found the whole wedding album in an earlier video... Along with the teapot. Also photos of children (this seemed to really bother me more... What did the kids do?) (We did not show the photos on video) But it seemed to be mostly wedding photos and gifts, and her shoes. Sad.

[@robertgardner3408]

How do you think all the marbles get in the creek? Slingshot

[@massriverpickers]

I have heard that, but why would kids do this to their own marbles? (Or did bullies do this to smaller kids? 😭) Sigh... I don't understand why people enjoyed shooting bottles back then either. 🤔 (Yes, we have a few bottles with BB holes Lol 😄) -Cathy 💖

It is a small branch/ tributary of a larger river. Yes, it is a very narrow stretch, like a creek or brook. But sometimes the water level gets very high, and the current swift, and we cannot even get in there! So when the water's low, we gotta go! 😁😃
