Hey man huge fan of of your channel started watching channel since it started before you had 10 subscribers! A bow to you and your camera man from MN your Catholic Subscriber!
Love your videos.
Badassery as always tpm !!! Great video as always ❤❤
The stack of glass panes may also have been photography plates, they looked to be the right size. Have you ever run a metal detector over the spoils from these pits? I have found a lot of coins and tokens and keys that way
Uh huh 🤔?
Thank you for including us in your bottle hunting adventure.
You are my favourite when it comes to bottle digging. Love not only the history you give when showing what you dug but also the dig itself
Can't tell you how much I enjoy these. You must feel like a time traveler sometimes.
For some reason I like the shape of the bitters bottles, the pickle jars, and I really like an olive oil bottle you dug up in a previous dig. What a fascinating job you have. I call it a job but as they say if you like what you do it's not work. And it's obvious you like what you do. Remember you are out there digging for all of us who wish we could.
Another jug for you personal collection? The collection we'd love to see.
I surprisingly dont have much of a collection. I sold most of it to fund a couple books Ive been writing
@BelowthePlains That's fantastic! Good luck with the writing. I'm keen to know more when the time is right.
I love history. I really enjoy where you dig and what you find. Stories start forming in my mind. I have driven all over the Midwest.
Sweeeet! Always waiting for you guys and your next video s! Rock on Tom!! N.T. NorCal ca.
Congratulations on two years! Love all the history information you give when you dig something out. My old eyes have some difficulty with the small print, but I stop the video when I need to so I can use my magnifying glass! Keep up the great work!
another awesome dig. Love all the embossed beers and that mineral water!
Awesome dig. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I could easily say this every time, What a cool look back through time! And I’m here for it
Hello Tom, another great program and some really cool finds, Nice work. Take care and stay safe. 👍
Thanks for watching!
Happy 2yrs, thanks for coming on UA-cam and sharing, a great journey, privy by privy through Dakota 😂 I would never have thought it would be so interesting with beautiful finds.
Awesome video as always. Found some beautiful bottles. And that little jug was really cool. The little donkey or ox was really neat. Love your Tom. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks 👍
@@BelowthePlains your so welcome
Enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, and thanks for watching!
Hi Tom and jake it's always amazing to see open fields we're once there was a town if it wasn't for the bottles you wouldn't know it ,got some good items from the pit
Uk fan here,great show, would love to see some of your personal collection sometime...
I surprisingly don't have a collection. I sold most of it to fund a couple books Ive been writing.
Congrats on your two years! Nice finds!
Very nice finds Tom, the roots looked difficult. I was amazed that the handle was still on the pitcher. Loved the crock. I was hoping more dish ware would have been in there. Great dig.👍👏😀
Love the town history,& the hotel ware pitcher!Great job guys!❤
Congratulations on your channel's 2nd anniversary. I love seeing the bottles and miscellaneous items you dig up.
Love your videos they are so therapeutic and I love learning about the past and seeing your wonderful treasure finds!!!
HA, Tom. Would there be a way you could display your website to where we could purchase your bottles?
Also. I'm a newer follower, and have spent hours & hours, through days of catching up on all your videos, which I think are GREAT. Thanks for having us along.
Love this! I can feel you are an OLD SOUL❤ CURIOUS what got you interested in this endeavor.
I like these shorter versions best. Even if they are two parts. Great video. Thanks
It’s nice to know that things I have used will be available to folks a hundred years from now. I only drink bottled beer and when bottles are no longer available I will stop drinking beer. Cans suck.
Really interesting to watch , love the back stoires to some of these places , i am from queensland austraila
Awesome digs man , I absolutely love that salt glazed liquor jug ! Very cool . Nothing like that around here . Thanks for sharing. Would be interested in the jug .
I am sure others have asked this, but what do you do with your finds? I assume some pieces are valuable. I will be looking at bottles in antique stores a lot differently now. Thanks for the great information! From Colorado.
As someone who loves glass, I am just giddy watching you dig up bottles.
I do love watching as you dig for treasures. You do not seem fazed by the left over excrement, which being ancient guess it is not dangerous. Me being an old female I tend to worry about such things as that. On the other hand your ability to find places to dig and the things you find is just so much fun to watch. My ex was a scuba diver and found places where in the old days people would dump in the water. Out of sight, so forth.
I'll bet you were always a worrywart. A lot of old females are never fazed by things like that.
Love to see a video where you talk about how you got started doing this. What has been your most favorite finds. The in's and out's of digging in these outhouse pits. Etc. I sometimes get a bit grossed out just thinking about where you're digging. 😂❤
I am so happy for you, Tom! Congratulations on your continued channel's success! So interesting and cool to watch and learn about!
Your amazing you find a lot of nice bottles
Great digging!! I always learn something new every time I watch.
Love your channel, love your commentary. I hear the smile in your voice when you find something nice, not ear-splitting yips blasting the mic. Keep up the great work!
😅Thank you for all your descriptions. Good filming as usual. Regards UK.
Another great dig... couldn't believe the jug and the pitcher ...keep on digging...🥰🥰
Good dig😊Stay well,keep digging I'll keep watching. Happy New Year,too. Like to read your book when it's done.
Thank you for sharing with us.
Hello, I am enjoying your channel. I like the background info that you give on an object when you pull an object out of the ground, however, the print is kind of small for me to see on my phone. I was wondering if you could enlarge the print and just maybe put it across the screen in sections or so.
I took a ghost town photography day trip with a friend the summer after we finished high school in 2008 and we stopped in Heaton. There were still a few buildings left then. Some of my favorite photos came from that trip.
Do you ever run across abandoned cemeteries in these types of ghost towns? Does the state or the municipality ever take responsibility for maintenance of these sites? Thanks for the interesting videos!
Happy Belated Birthday!!!
I’m amazed at the number of intact bottles you find!
Have you ever found human bones?
Some of the colors are absolutely amazing 😮
Love it. Congrats on two years !
Awesome as always. All the best.
Do you clean the bottles up after your shows? would you mind showing what your bottle finds look like after they are cleaned up if you dont mind?
Great video guys. Congratulations on 2 years!
I’ve found some cool stuff, but never anything close to the wonderful things you guys have found. You sure know your stuff too. You’ve taught this old gal quite a bit, which I thank you for. I only wish I had started digging a lot earlier, it sure would have been easier than it is now…lol…
Happy birthday to your channel. Another great video as usual. See you next week. Hope you're doing okay.
Good digs!! Wish we were digging now!! Givin me the itch 😂
Great video! Whoever is doing your video recording, is doing a great job! Makes ther vid just that much more interesting. You should introduce him/her to uis !!
Nice video again. Great to see the history this way
Super interesting, as usual.
Love watching your videos, my hubby and I want to know why you get so excited to find soda bottles? Are they worth good money or just a favorite for you to find? Have you ever come to CT to dig?
Hi from Australia 👋 I love seeing your finds. Thanks for documenting your digs 🤗
Great video!!!!! Did the cast iron toy clean up well? Was there any kind of makers mark???
Thanks love the fun finds :)
Good see you Tom, have a wonderful 2024, always love your channel 👍🙏
Enjoyed this video as I do all your videos
awesome digging this week thanks
2 more cool digs
Love your show tom keep up always find coolest stuff too
thanks for watching!
It blows my mind to think people in the past threw their garbage down the hole, thinking it will never be seen again. If they knew people over 100 years later would be digging it back up, their minds would be blown too.
What do you do with all of the things you find? I would love to see that side of your adventures!
I love the show, one of my favorites
thanks for watching!
The Lagina brothers should take you to Oak Island to dig up out house pits. You would find more and better things than they have for the last 10 years.
That’s for sure haha
Very cool.
Was the pitcher intact? Couldnt quite make out if the spout was broken.
Do you ever dig in Minnesota?
What do you do with all the bottles that you find?
I wish I lived in an area thats old and can produce things like this, but I'm in Cali where we go old mine diving
Ive actually dug bottles out there in old mine camps and explored some old mines in the black hills. I didn't find anything remarkable but I know some people do. Some old levis would be alright haha
I believe the glass plates at 18:25 were old 5X7 glass plate negatives.
Please show the haul cleaned up at the end! It's fascinating, but we'd like to actually see what you dig up.
What do you do with the bottles and pottery that you find? Do you have a shop that you sell them on, or what?
I just wish you’d use a metal detector at least a few times, what if I mean really what if? Well fun to watch. Good luck on your finds.
Just saw a video of Havre, Montana where the town literally moved underground to the building basements after a fire burnt the entire town down. Bet their out houses are great
I love how archaeology calls ancient garbage dumps "caches". We learn so much from what ancient civilizations discarded as useless junk.
You dig a lot of common bottles, what do you do with them?😎
Your videos would make a great drinking game! Take a drink for every liquor flask or beer bottle 😂
You should try putting in the estimated worth of some of the bottles and stuff it Would help with the excitement
If you can find the old outhouses there should be all kinds of valuables in their because I don't think people were to eager to climb down them and get what they dropped.
The second place you dug was maybe a ladies rest room as always see you on the next one
That Franzen building was knocked down a while ago.
What do you two do during the winter?
What becomes of all this stuff you uncover?
We all need to spend a little more time down outhouse holes, eh. Can you dig it? 🐭🐭🐭🐭🐭🐭
Why are there so many prescription bottles in the holes.lots of beer bottles too
Before Congress made it illegal to buy and posse certain substances, anyone who had the money could purchase morphine, and cocaine as well as opiates of all kinds, on demand by the friendly staff at the local apothecary... So, the presence of all the drug bottles, is clear... Wikipedia is a very good site to give the details about our Grandparents and the dope they were using for life's little glitches....
There may have been a pharmacy next door to the hotel.
Do you register your finds appropriately with the pertinent State Archaeologist Office?
We've actually tried working with them, and some of the folks from the state historical society were absolutely bitter and refused to work with us, unfortunately.
@@BelowthePlains - "Historic and prehistoric sites that are found or located upon any land owned by the state or its political subdivision and are significant in understanding and interpreting the history and prehistory of the state is subject to review by the State Historical Society (NDCC 55-02-07)" This seems pretty understandable, but then I work primarily in Iowa, where state and federal laws regarding historic and prehistoric sites on public land are pretty carefully watched over.
❤
So glad for another video great to see you guys again ❤😊
Weird Question:
I would love to know what Tom Askjem uses to wash his Laundry with because he has the most muddied clothes then the next day still has clean clothes in all his videos all this time!???😮
Tide!
@@BelowthePlains
I thought it might be that! Thanks
“Solid use layer”, was that a pun?? lol
AKA decomposed poo layer !!!!!!!!!!! LOL
♥
You realize where you find bottles of glue and ink the residents were literate and wrote letters.
it is kind of sad that these buildings in historic areas were all razed/torn down. Lots of places like this in the United States and now there are only buildings built after 1950 or none at all like the video.
I think the bar, hotel and drug store shared a garbage out.
