was working on my beach the other day and noticed a ammo tin had washed in.. was rusted shut but after i opened it, it turned out to be a Geo cache that has been missing since 2007.. gold guru ran the numbers and tracked down the owner for me so i can return it later this week.. will let u all know how it goes, maybe get a green light to hunt his property... but after a busy few weeks of putting a new 350 SBC in the digger Mobil, i am back to hunting.. not much but a start.. 1925, 1928, 1941, 1942d, 1944, 1945d, 1946d, 1956d Wheat's.. and some odds n ends... till the next hunt, and happy 4th to all!!!

I have a Geocache that I found in Hawaii. I contacted the company and they notified the owner, who never replied. Maybe an abandoned geocache.

I found one of those just the other day under a tree in the middle of nowhere. Had nothing but crap in it.

And now it has a pencil in it. :)
