I got a couple of nice things
1. a horseshoe necklace with lots of bling, daughter alex spoke real quick for that one
2. a wide brim miami vice hat, great for making shade
3. a ducks unlimited weather clock, trade from above
4. a kellyco towel, BB gave a couple of ideas on how to use it LOL
I was lucky enough to find one of the sets of keys for the special prizes, and boy howdy did I get lucky,
I can't lie, I was hoping for a detector, but I got something that floored me.
Noodle came up with a 1882 5 dollar gold coin, IT IS SWEET
Thank you to noodle and her a$$ and everyone involved ( including the hunters ) to make this resounding success

Re: Prizes of the LBH
That was partly my reason for posting this, but also I didn't get to see who won everything!
So please if you would share your prizes with those that are interested. Pictures aren't necessary but are nice!

Re: Prizes of the LBH
OK so now I'm being pushy.
I am trying to find out who donated all the prizes I won and send them PMs where I can. So if you don't want to post your prizes here please send a PM to the person that donated the item and tell them thank you.
The MAJOR reason I am asking this is, people who donate prizes need to know that their prizes went to people that appreciate them. IT is difficult to get prizes donated from some people but by letting them know we all appreciate it they will continue to donate to events like these.

I was given the great honor of having the gator for this year as it is now the Lousannia Bayou Hunt "mascot" to be passed to another lucky person next year. I guess it is fitting that it came home with me as everyone knows the "gators" are from Florida and Lousannia only has "tigers" lol I will post a pic of it and it's new friends soon.
Your Discovery Has History Count On It
Enjoy the dig, treasure the time

Re: Prizes of the LBH
It was my pleasure to give you the top to the razor. I think completed relics like that are so cool and I wanted you to have it. I'm pleased you did like it.
