    Such an amazing find!!!
    Hey CD, I have to go here, https://resizeimage.net/
    upload my pics, shrink them below 1MB (about 30% size of original),
    Then upload them to this site.
    Everyone else seems to be able to send from their phones but not me...or it seems, you. I wish there was an easier way, I know Tony looked into it some time ago. I know I speak for all of us when I say I really appreciate your wonderful contributions over the years and hope something can be done to make it easier for you...and me, but I don't contribute too much
    Cograts, again on an unusual and special find!

    Beautiful "mallet" style bottle , another water find ?

    I use to post my pictures from my phone onto Facebook (didn't matter what size as FB would automatically resize them) and then just copy them onto my computer files and load them here .

    PS , no longer on Facebook switched to Gab. com

    Well not to deep I am eyeballing them. The trick is going in the parts of the river where the current has blown the silt away... Basically we read the river kinda like we read land sites..
