Howdy Folks. Still buzzing from some Bucket List KILLS I headed out into the field. I had some company. I tried to work around the area the reale popped up in but, not much for good targets. Within an hour the SNOW popped up a plenty! Not one to get scared off by snowflakes,:laughing7:, I kept swinging. I got some old lead, an interesting button, some large nickel plated brass thingy with a gear on the backside, piece of a crotal bell, and plenty of iron and trash.

The main reason for this post sure ain't the finds. I just wish to convey my heart felt gratitude for all the wonderful encouragement and support I have received here on T-net. Although I've been after treasure for nine years I still have a lot to learn about getting consistently good recoveries. I feel I have grown more this season then all the rest combined. Taking notes from many members who know the ropes and score the goods on a consistent basis. I am excited for the future and have greater expectancy for some really cool finds.

So although I have not closed the door on this season I know the reality of winter hunting slows things down and daylight savings time just stinks. LOL! I'll be around but, just not as much. Thanks again and all you fair weather hunters please keep the rest of us in hibernation up north entertained this winter. Thanks again for the support and stopping by. Kurios1:icon_salut:

Great post up Kevin, best of luck if you get out again (I'm sure you'll try again) We just got 6"+ last night and it's going to snow for another 20hrs, so my hunting is done for the season. (heavy heart)

I hear you Bud! Many of us feel the same way. I've learned so much since I've been a member and have gotten help with many things, not just my finds and technique. We have a great group of guys and gals on this forum and my hats off to the mods and administrators for running a great site.
Good luck to all in the year to come. [emoji256][emoji482]

Kev, we've shared some pretty deep stuff on PM...I know where you've came from, how you've heard that POP when you pulled your head out, and pulled up your bootstraps and GOT TO LIVING!! That's why I can relate so well...but your presence here is a bright spot in my day, I know I'm going to see a great post, whether you've dug a bucket lister or not. You are full of positive energy and a lot of us feed off of that. I've been averaging 75 hours a week at work , with 90 last week. Obviously I can't get out so I survive vicariously through great posts like yours. Keep on keepin on brother...Ddf.

Well, not sure I have actually fully removed my cranium from that orifice of which thou speakest!:laughing9: I am trying though and things will indeed get better in time. True character is always created and nurtured in the "valleys" we go through in life. I just happen to be in a rather deep one right now but, I do know the way out. I hear ya' on working long hours. I am not nearly at your hours but, six days a week getting up at 4:00 a.m. is getting to be a grind.

I appreciate your being real and genuine. You can't ask for much more than that out of another traveler along this journey we call life. Much peace to you and yours my friend.:icon_salut:
