43 Gold from my May trip

diggerfororo · May 26, 2008

We left for out annual spring trip to the Med. on April the 8th and returned on May 21. We had a fairly good trip this year. I had some dental problems that cost me 7 days of hunting but I managed to pull out 43 Gold and about $800.00 in spendable coins. I hope you-all had a nice spring diggin and will look forward to some replies.

I wonder if that ring has any ancient curse on it...or you know...latent spirits, or things of that nature...

cause it's got a mummy on it, and that must mean it's untold thousands of years old, ya know :icon_jokercolor:

Hi Echo, I have never been to your state so I can't give you any info. You should go to your local library and get a copy of your county history bood. There is A ton of info there.

That's because if someone says some else on a post, it's returned to the top of the page as a recent
update..
Also all the people who commented on the find first time around get an email saying a new comment
has been made... bla bla bla..
