My First Cache! What a doosie! ** PIC UPDATE 4/1 **

**DiggerBug** · Mar 26, 2008, 08:17 PM

Nana and I went to the old coal mining town today. We started at the old ballpark and the first thing Nana digs is a silver rosie! Got us pumped up but after about an hour of nothing but fence pieces I say...let's go into town. So we head to an empty lot between two houses in town.

We headed to the back side of the lot and after just a few minutes I see these dolls under an old tree. I climb under the privets and started pulling out dolls, a toy trolley then see this bowl of marbles. I holler for Donna to come over and about that time I pulled out a tin...the lid came off and more marbles! All of this stuff was sitting on top of the ground or just barely covered in dirt.
There were toy tanks, cars, jewelry, flatware, marbles, play money, compacts.....

Wow! Sounds like a great day! Nana, are you sure you didn't plant that stuff!??

You're that kinda "Let's see her happy" person!

Excellent Find !

**Kas** · Mar 26, 2008, 08:44 PM

That's a super find I think. Totally cool.

Looks like some clyptomaniac kid lived there. That or the other kids wouldn't let 'um play so they stole the goodies so no one could play. LOL. :

OH no, Noodle! She found all that stuff fair and square!

This has to be one of the best times we've had hunting, so far! We pulled up to the lot, got out, and weren't there fifteen minutes and I hear her say, "AWWW, baby dolls!" And I say, "Awww...that's cool!" Then about twenty seconds later I hear her yell, "Oh my God! Get over here and look at all this stuff!!"

We spent the next two hours crawling around on our hands and knees under the privet pulling stuff out of the ground! Gosh, that was FUN! I am so proud for you girl!!!

Now thats my kinda cache ... totally awesome Digger, I love all the marbles..even the white bowl..and the cameo ( hold that baby up to a light bulb, see if its a real cameo, see if its cracked and see if its signed on the back by the carver..usually they carved their initials in em on the back.. and the cuff bracelet, is that turquoise in that baby, it may be sterling.. What a totally awesome day you had.. you lucky lucky dog...
