Earlier this week, I got skunked at my favorite city park. It always had yielded something good, on (almost) every hunt,
but this time - nothing, not even recyclable metals....!
Well, I bounced back, and had three good hunts on the heels of that loss....or, was it a loss?
You see, it took something like that SKUNK to get me to think about why I detect AND why I felt that loss.
I detect because it is the only logical thing for me to do, in my retirement days - just for the FUN of finding something good,
and getting out of doors!
The loss was felt only briefly, as I knew my luck would return, if I stuck with it.
Yeah, it was a humbling experience, but a (needed) Attitude Adjustment...!
