Heat & Humidity was a Bit Oppressing &
I still need to Purchase some Deet for the Gnat population,
But I got through almost 90 Minutes
without a single ache in My Ankle so that's a good sign.
I just need to get out more & back into Shape.
I did twist my ankle on My last coin dig,
But I wasn't going to let it's position in the roots
to deter me from finding out what it was.

my Gas rebate for the day 95 Cents

My last Dig of the Day turned out to be a 1923 Wheat
date was so encrusted I needed 3 seconds of Nic-a-date to get the dirt off the 3

HaHa he Better have had a SNOW 1 or SNOW 3 set handy :laughing7:
My guess small plow by the size of keys.
& hopefully for him 1 was a set for the same plow :tongue3:
the one to the right reminds me of a Gas Cap Key. (MMI Industries key)
Small Key is just a Master Key

Either that or Chrissy Snow lived nearby :laughing7:

LOL on the Walker, Make it Plastic & Self Propelled :occasion14:

healing is always good, helps you to appreciate your health when it has been bad. hope you get better and good luck with the screwdriver and getting down to use it or is it getting back up or both?

It's the Getting back up that is a Trip :laughing7: (trick)

I use a 18"ish Scoop to Dig, (I haven't measured it exactly)
Then use it as a Short Cane to help push myself back Up

Jeff.....I wear a knee pad on my right knee. When I have to get down to dig a target I basically fall onto my right hand and right knee on the pad. When I get up I use the Lesche tool as my aid. I'm thinking this might be a sign we're getting older.
