White's Spec. XLT..... My Eyes
Braved the sub freezing temps yeserday and went out to my dad's house to see if I couldn't find some silver. There use to be an old house on the property so I started hitting there with my XLT. I was getting a bunch of nice hits but I quickly realized that the ground was COMPLETELY STINKING FROZEN. I had no hammer, no chisel, no nothing. So instead of fighting the groundcrete as i like to call it. I just marked my signals for a warmer, easier day. Anyways... to make a long story short. My dad was walking out of his house to see if we had hit anything good.. then i hear him say "Well i'll be da&%ed", and then from the surface of his drive way he pulls a 1943 Merc... heh. Nice. So i'm going back when it warms up to find my own.

You will always wonder if he planted it,, lol. I have to share a trick/prank/ I played on my best hunting buddy,, my Father. He has found many toy pistols/capguns, and that is one of his favorite finds. I (me and my kids, so I am not 100% guilty) bought a cap gun and buried it in his yard. It may be YEARS before he hunts his own yard, but when he finds it,,,, I hope me or my children can watch! I will tell him, and he will laugh, but,,, he WILL get me back,,, makes for a fun life:)
