From the land of the Bluenose.....had not planned to go out for a dig but I guess the breakfast I made for Marie freed me up.......................had nothing to do with the 7 loads of laundry she had to do.
Went here and there and ended up back there ..........there was where a lowered lake was. Apparently the dam needed a good going over.

Man there sure was a lot of glass, iron and muck but this bouy did the dew.
Ended up with 181 coins.

And of course the mandatory cutlery, dinkies and keys as well as a Swiss army knife, musket ball and a buckle.

Of course this dig answered the million dollar question of where Air Canada flight 626 from Montreal ended up!
Tomorrow I see the specialist about the knee but for now , with Marie out it's Black Sabbath and Bud!

I love reading your posts. It looks like you picked up some silver coins there, too. I would go back and check it out some more, if you can.
