    Here's a strange one...

    I got out for a short hunt last week Wed. night and went to my "original farmhouse." The yard is full of signals and always a challenge to hunt. I have found some neat relics here so I always dig any good signal, regardless of how large it pinpoints. This night I dug my first key tag and some other stuff including a longish piece of metal. Cleaning it up later I saw numbers and writing on it. It is the back to an old thermometer and is labeled "Freezing, Temperate, Sumr Heat", and in the 90-100 range "Blood Heat." Blood heat? We puzzled on that one until we figured it must be an older term for "body temperature." Weird, wacky stuff!

    The bicycle is a curious vehicle. Its passenger is its engine.

    Or maybe it means when your blood begins to boil! I know when it gets that hot mine does! 70 is enough for me! Neat finds Anne.

    Nice to have an old farm to search over and over. Cool variety of finds, and I like the pic of the barn the best! Dig everything Anne! ffd
