    Sledding hill tailings

    Mark (Marinedad) and I hit three sledding hills today.

    In a test of my psychic ability I sent him a note asking if he'd drive all the way to Elgin for 37 cents in clad the other day. Well he did.

    Snow was hard packed, but in the day of the TV game console there just is not the big fun in sledding anymore that there was back in the early 20's or 30's, as I remember.

    We pulled all the quarters we were gonna get today at the first site, got a fresh JVC video camera battery at the second site and found a tail missing it's squirrel at the third site.

    So while no bonanza appeared, it was great weather and we had a nice easy time chopping into that 6" base to pop the goodies out.

    Getting out for a hunt and scoring any goodies makes for a great day. Maybe with this heat wave were getting
    next weekend you could pluck out the buried signals you guys had to leave behind.
