      Hi Randy! We have certainly been on a good run of marbles... But that yeast sign was a great find, for sure! We never know what a marble hunt will lead to. Yes, we look forward to Drew's retirement! Thank you for your kind comments and well wishes! -Cathy & Drew 👋😃😎👍

      So sorry, Patricia ☹️. I was honestly trying to do it all in one video, at first.
      I had everything cleaned and photographed, but was nowhere near done editing the second half!😬 I know it was an abrupt ending. My apologies.
      Just wanted to get at least half of it up tonight. Lots more finds in Part 2 (already in the works! ) -Cathy💖

      Hi Louise & Ian! 👋😃😎👍 We certainly have been in the marbles lately!! But it was a long wait for these conditions. We had record rainfall last season, and could not access this site for months! But the heavy rains restocked the rivers 😁💖!Glad we went out when we did (ice drifts and all) cuz the water is high again!🙄 We still have some more river hunts to post though. And we are watching you also! Loved your outfit, Louise, we saw you lounging in, while bottle digging! 😂( No matter, I would still manage to get dirt in everywhere) BTW, you guys find a good variety of items as well! Always entertaining. Thanks!

    I went to Aruba for 5 days. Got in around midnight last night and couldn’t wait to walk my creek for marbles today. I had to wait for the rain to stop this afternoon and finally got to hunt with a friend. I found 6 and she found 7 marbles. Then got home and your weekly video posted. My heart is full.

      I’ll be waiting patiently for part 2. I still have many previous videos on your channel to watch. Slowly getting down the list. Aruba was beautiful. Windy and hot temp 86-78 high and low every day. They have an island called sea glass island. I wasn’t able to visit. Old old trash site with old glass and marbles that’s been tumbled by the waves and glass is smooth. A couple other beaches where you can find sea glass but not like the amount or quality found on sea glass island. I did find a couple piece and old porcelain pieces on one beach. I very much enjoy your channel and all your finds.

      @@Creekseekingadventures I didn't know that about the sea glass island! Bummer you didn't get to go there, but it sounds like you found some things, and the weather was (IMO) perfect! Our "marble river" is only accessible a couple of time a year, lately, due to high water from record rainfall the past couple of years. But we have other sites. It's helpful to have a rotation of sites, so they can "restock" between visits. Glad you're enjoying the vids.. Thanks for all your kind comments!

    I bet it’s nice without the ice 🧊 That headless lamb was creepy as was the old bike & the half submerged circular mower. I like the still shots you incorporated into this adventure- very artsy.
    Marbles are like little tiny planets 🪐 or worlds , so interesting to behold.
    The little blue & white porcelain sign stole the whole show tho 😅…. The pizza was a close 2nd Mmmmmm

      The ice is coming back Lol. Temps in the 20s at night this week. Rivers are high again anyway, from recent rain. Still a couple more marble and bottle hunts to post yet though! I am working on Part 2 of this outing now. Then the next will be a solo outing, as Drew had to work.
      I like the bicycle photo also! Actually, photos are my thing: both nature and artsy. Drew and I both used to be in a camera club, and competed locally, nationally, and internationally... Before we started doing videos. I hope to make some videos of my nature photos, set to music, at some point.
      The yeast sign is going up in the kitchen.. probably near where I keep the yeast for the pizza dough. It is a door push sign, and is 100+ years old. Find of the day!
      Do you remember the Three Stooges brewing beer.. "We ALL put the yeast in!"

    Wow- what a pick! That little ol sign is niiiiiice! ... and, as always, I envy your plethora of marbles. The one spot I know that produces marbles with any regularity at all spits them out in ones and twos. 3 is the BEST day EVAH- and I'm giddy with amazefulness. The mud sucks everything down. Only wild tides and weather provoke a burping out of one or two. And we've had some pretty crazy tides and wind and weather up here, so you'd think they'd have surfaced. But no. They need a gentle tide or two two wash them so their 'bellies' show. I guess I really need hip waders because there are many low tides where the water's still verging on breaching the boots... ah well. Anticipation and all that. 😉

    • @massriverpickers
      @massriverpickers  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi There! Yes, enough finds in this one for a part 2 (same day). The reason for so many marbles is cuz of last year's record rainfall, and not being able to get near that stretch of river for many months! It helps to have a rotation of sites ( if you are so blessed) to give sites a chance to re-stock. And of course many of the marbles are in "played with" condition (to be kind). But the freshly exposed ones can be really nice! We need new boots and waders.. we both have leaks at this point. 😬 Plus Drew lost a boot, when we got stuck in the low tide muck, and had to be rescued! (We also lost a grabber tool and long handled rake... Swallowed up in the mud!) So please be careful at low tide!!! -Cathy💖

      @@massriverpickers Thanks Cathy! Late reply due to new laptop/comments off. Oopsy. I can't remember if I've ever asked you guys if you've ever put the dinged marbles in a polisher? I just last week picked up a Monster 1 gal(?) Le Parfait canning jar (at the actual dump), cleaned it-- and now it holds all my marbles except the ones I've found here. Just. Not antique, and not even vintage (still sold on Amazon), but a closed clear container for all the marbs is a very cool thing. Looking forward to Part 2!! Cheers from the Snowy Coast of Maine! 🌷

    Hi 👋🏻 Drew & Kathy, another amazing Marbelous Day capturing all of those beautiful marbles! Drew found a nice old sign ! I am always pleased to see your videos and all of the comments you receive. It’s wonderful to know how many people love watching your river finds. How do you and Drew know about the marbles? Have you researched them or just natural instinct? Just curious there are so many I watch that don’t know. You are both the best! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜

      Hi Susan! 👋😃 Drew definitely had the find of the day with that porcelain sign!
      That is going up in our kitchen somewhere! The rivers are our favorite place to hunt, but we can't always get in there. That is why there are so many marbles right now: months of storms last season! Now we just had some rain, and water is high again.🙄 Meanwhile, I recently found five marbles... While metal detecting!! 😂 We didn't actually know about the marbles in this river.. we went in there (originally) to look for bottles. The age of most of the "trash" in there is 1930s-1960s This is kinda late for bottles, but prime years for vintage marbles! So if we find an older bottle there, it's a bonus! I still don't know how to ID every marble I find.. I have lots of books, and I joined an internet forum. I was also fortunate to meet Larry Alley III
      at a camera club meeting! His family manufactured Alley Agate marbles from 1929-1949. He came to our house and sorted through many marbles for me!! He even gave me a few of his marbles from the factory site! I will never forget that!
      Funny though... Now I seem to find marbles everywhere I go! 👀 -Cathy💖

    Hello Cathy and Drew, Nice video and finds! Lew and I enjoyed watching Part 1 very much. The porcelain door pusher sign is a very awesome find. Still in readable condition but a little torched. That still has quite a value to, it is like the one we found at our best dump ever spot. We sold the one we had on E. bay for ninety dollars. You guys can be creative with the 1962 rubber lamb doll. You could be silly and put a baby doll head on it or do that for Halloween! LOL! To bad some marbles were damaged, but you had some nice marble finds, Can you both try to dig that dump where that copper looking tea kettle was? You might find some neat bottles and collectibles there. Lew and I are looking forward to watching Part 2. We are hoping to dig before the bugs get bad to. talk to you soon and take care. Happy hunting to the both of you.----Jeffrey Hull Jr. (Jeff & son Lew)

      Hi Jeff & Lew,
      Funny that you guys found the same porcelain sign! This is the only one like it we have ever found, but we did see some online. We will probably put it up in the kitchen somewhere. That's a keeper, and a nice small size. I think Drew told you.. we left the headless lamb, perched on a fallen tree, for someone else to discover.
      After the last rain we had, the rivers are high again. 🙄 But we still have a couple more hunts to share. Glad we got in there when we did! We have some freezing temps coming back this week. Hopefully you guys can get out digging after that passes. Spring is just around the corner! Good luck and happy digging! -Cathy 🙂

      Hi Larry! 👋😃 Drew and I are getting out more, now that warmer days are popping up, here and there! We save glass too, although perhaps some will go to others to "up-cycle" or repair. Rare pieces are documented and archived, but most of what we find is not rare. We have given some items of local historical interest to our local historical societies, and have documented all our river finds for the past twenty years! And as you know, we also do river clean-up. RC has been very good to us over the years, and we never miss a video! We share a love for marbles, and mammals! 😄 🐿️ I'm glad we inspire you, although sometimes my silliness over marbles in the river seems.. well... silly. 😁 It's just fun, and I feel like a kid out there... And you never know what else may be found in the process! Good news: Drew will be retiring soon. Looking forward to it! 😎👍 Thanks Larry! -Cathy (& Drew) 🙂😎🐰🐿️🦔🦃🦌🌸🐦🇺🇸🙏🌞
