Some you win....some you lose. Check out this "bogus" ring that I found this A.M

The Sov. Elite gave off a most high clear sound on this one; but I knew it was not silver after I dug it out..inside of band was too pitted..color just not good...and a few stones missing.

But I like the style..I think it is pretty.

Anyway, here's a pic

Thanks for looking

Lorraine

Well it sure looks nice, much better than a bobby pin.

What kind of gloves do you use ?

I have no affiliation with this company but SealSkinz makes some very nice glove for working in and around water. I hunted last week and the water temps was 54-55 deg. and my hands never were cold.

James, I forgot the name, but they look similar to ski gloves with "Thinsulate" inside.

They are effective in the really cold temps but only if I wear another pair of gloves inside them. For temps over 28*, they are effective by themselves.

I am always l searching for better quality gloves, but the ones I have come across as so expensive;

I will check out your suggested brand.

Thank you,
Lorraine

Lorraine,

I also use a pair of silk glove liners when I wear gloves in dry situations the silk really helps keep your hands warm.

It was 19* at the beach this morning, but no wind. It was fun out there.
