Crazyjarhead back on his feet again after a tough start to the new year

crazyjarhead · Mar 6, 2009

Good evening everyone. It's been a tough 09 and a cold one here in Ohio. Jan 16 my son lost his house. Then, my wife had to leave unexpectedly to fly overseas because my mother in law is not doing well. She is 88. She will be gone 2 months. Expense after expense :-[

Since I am a home owner and an independent truck driver I really have my hands full. I just returned from a 7 week trip and logged over 7000 miles. Glad to be home. My son and daughter in law will be moving out within a few weeks to start a new life, again. Thanks to everyone who gave me moral support and donations as it was not necessary but greatly appreciated.

Anyway, I had to get out as it has been a while. The wether here will be 70 Sat. The ground is thawed and prime from detecting. My first hunt of the year was not to impressive. 1 1950 wheatie, a 1960, and a 62. , a church medallion of some kind, a harmonic reed, and a ford something

I have a lot of places lined up I just have to get permission. My old places are nearly hunted out. Time to move on to some virgin ground

Thanks for looking and Happy hunting Ron

Fire are Ugly and a killer. BE CAREFULL

By the look of the hex on the end of the piece, it looks like a 20's hubcap.

Thanks Chris. I'm going out sat too. Hope I can find some goodies. The bad weather followed me to Texas, Florida and then California. I come home and guess what? Freakin 7 degrees and cold for a week. I can't escape the grips of this old man winter. Snow in Atlanta

Hope you get out there soon, it's good therapy. I finally made it out tonight, and I'm bushed. Didn't find much but had a blast.
Hope this year will be a better one for you.

Good to see you out and about again...sorry to hear about your son and daughter in laws fire....cannot even imagine how that has to hurt....they say God only puts on you what you can bear but sometimes it seems to be way more than that...but at least they have each other and their health...I know that doesnt replace all of the irreplaceable material things but at least they are alive and can start over..maybe even be better off in the long run....see ya later...... :thumbsup:
