Howdy Folks!
I left the house yesterday determined to find me some gold. That was my goal for the day, and I wasn't coming home without some glitter in the pouch. The MXT Pro was loaded with a fresh pack of batteries, and armed with my Lesche, headed out the door around 10:30. By the time I finished my hunt it was 4:00pm, I had 122 coins, three gold items and a silver ring. Seemed to be the day for rings. I got like 6 of them yesterday.
The MXT Pro was sporting the 6x10 coil for this hunt, and the weather was excellent. Should be good again today as we expect highs in the mid 50s with no snow on the ground. My aim is to find some gold every day between now and surgery on the 31st. Once my knee is fixed, I'll be a force to contend with! The banged up ribs still hurt but are getting better every day.
Anyhow, the first photo is of myself with my brand new Mossberg Maverick 88 model 12ga that Pipster got me for a Yule present. What a terrific gift, and I was floored when he gave it to me. I surely look forward to taking it out to pop off a few shells. It is intended to be a home defense weapon. Ideally, anybody who breaks into our home will seek refuge elsewhere at the sound of that pump being racked up! My attitude is the best weapon is one you never need to actually use.
Next are my finds from yesterday and include:
26 Quarters = $6.50
20 Nickels = $1.00
30 Dimes = $3.00
45 Pennies = $0.45
1 Prez Dollar = $1.00
I also found a foreign coin but don't know where it comes from. It is not the first of that particular coin I've found but still don't know what country produced it.
Strange find of the day.... a railroad spike found on an elementary school tot lot just under the wood chips. Its one of those things that leaves you scratching your head in wonder. What on earth is a railroad spike doing on a tot lot in the city? How did it get there? The whole thing seems a bit bewildering to me!
May the Blessings of the Season be with you all,
and peace reign in every home, hearth and heart.
