Busy day today, but perfect weather. Expecting one - two
inches of snow on Sunday.

Busy day, but I snuck out for a few hours this morning.

Hit a tear down. Was really expecting some old coin, or
at least some silver. Zip.

Bit of clad, odds and ends, and these keys.

Perhaps the old coins next time.

all have a good un......

That's an excellent find...keys always make me think of the people who lost them. They're in great shape. Nicely done!

Sherm, gotta love those old keys. 8) My folks house still uses that type to lock the front door. It's amazing how many different patterns they can make out them.

Love those keys Sherm!

And that snow will be gone soon! Going through the country back roads on my way home last night I got this wonderful scent of daffodils! They are the first sign of spring around here so it's just around the corner!
