Hi all,luck was on my side today. In the 3rd hole I dug there was a silver bracelet that I thought was gold untill I took a good look with my flashlight and then I saw it was 9.25. Its all good, shortly after that I found a thin gold ring and a cool 18K charm that has a tiny gold coin in it. I tried close ups but my micro is not good enough.They always turn blurry on close ups..
About three hours into the hunt my back was killing me and I was just about done. I was thinking I had another coin but I was pleasantly surprised to see more gold! A 14K came to light which stopped my back from hurting for another hour. Once the ache came back I headed home with my head out the window in the rain ,just to stay awake. I had bought two red bulls for the drive home ,I reached in the cooler and I had left them in the fridge...Any way I made it back in one piece. :coffee2: SANY0864 [1024x768].JPG SANY0865 [1024x768].JPG SANY0867 [1024x768].JPG
