got real close to some dirt, NO RAYS, but I got my Shield up & added some Fatty

[port ewen ace]

wit da RAIN nearly EVERY DAY--- hard for a digger to get to diggin'--but--- a new old farm permission lookin' pretty promising. my 2ND & best Shield nicky ever. cleaned with only a stiff dry brush & coated with beeswax. also bagged a surface 1862 Fatty, Imperial Standard button, some old scrap brass, a roached IHP, 1919 wheatie & a bit O' crad



not one stinkin' roundball or buckle, but a broken piece of a skeleton key plus these other "prizes"



dammitt!!!!! gotta get the eyes checked---- thought this was 1999.... no Bubba.... it's a whole lot biglier better--- even.... "very, very, very, incredible.... and.... beautiful" ------to quote someone most of us know... and love



gotta go.... IT'S RAINING________________AGAIN
