Goin' Road Trippin' Its been a while

Hey guys,

It has been a good while since I have gone on the search. One reason is for money and buying a house and work and family and the list goes on and on. I would love to dedicate as much time as before because I did find a ton but who knows what this year will bring? A Raod trip tomorrow with my Dad who is actually a member but never posts Silver Slice. I actually think I found some Virgin territory so we will see how it turns out. Wish me luck and hopefully I will have some good pics and a good story for yall.

We were just inquiring about where you were. Welcome back :hello2:.

Did you end up selling your stash to buy your house? Are you still in the Navy?

Re: Goin' Road Trippin' Its been a while

No I am still around but just busy. I may be getting deployed in the next couple of months so we will see how much hunting I can do. I don't think I will ever fully retire from this hobbie. I did sell some of my 40% ers but just for stuff to modernize the house I bought. I was selling rolls of 40%ers for about 55.00 on ebay but now I could probably get more. Oh well I did not even make a dent. Holding on to the rest.

Re: Goin' Road Trippin' Its been a while

It's good to hear from you.Hope you and Silver Slice score the big one.
Hearing that you might be getting deployed takes me back to my youth where I wanted to join the Navy.
Went down to enlist and got shanghaied by the Marines.
I still want to join the Navy,but alas,I'm way too old. So I joined the US Coast Guard Auxiliary 12 years ago and get to patrol Long Island Sound. Well it's better than nothing :dontknow:.

Re: Goin' Road Trippin' Its been a while

Ok guys it was a long trip but I think it had some decent results. You guys let me know and be the judge. Normally I send pics of the scenery along the way but this time I could not because I forgot the camera. Me and Silver Slice had a good time and enjoyed the trip which can be more important than finding silver and gold. Cheers and happy hunting. Enjoy the pics.

Ok sorry about that...here are the pics. Not quite the Golden Silver hauls of old but hey I am a little bit rusty lol. As long as I am on dry land I want to continue the hunt if funds allow. Final Tally was 65 40%ers and 3 90%ers (1 1951 Franklin and 2 Kens). We also found a 1981 Mexican coin and two impaired clad proofs. That is it and that is all but we went through some pretty country to get it. Take care.

Rich, I admire your heart and dedication. With all that you do including the tons of coins you haul I don't think your old at all. Thanks and enjoy the pics.
