Re: Iv been everywhere man

Is that a bomb? Dug this in the alley in Varambon, covered it back up and I belive the mayor is looking into it.
I actually got a signed letter from the mayor with a city stamp to detect that alley.
Behind the town and above is a Castle i recieved permission to hunt at........... the day after I left! Agggggggggg

Re: Iv been everywhere man

Is that an 1838 1/2 franc?
 
Re: Iv been everywhere man

1898, my oldest, wish I could stayed longer I know I coulda got older. Folks just dont hardly detect In france, or switzerland. Marsellie would be a great place to show up with a sand scoop and a water machine.

You saw my 2 best individual taste from where I went. Cerdon wine. Its a bubbly (like champagne) blush, but sweet tasting, and the cheese He was making, Very hard bitter cheese taste but delicious, to nibble on.
Im not a big cheese eater and I hate champagne, but this stuffs great.

Its a funny thing you go to someones house, that has a sign out front, knock on the door tell them what you want, they lead you to the store, you taste, and you score.
Like a drug deal or something.

Buying local made cheese and the wine are both just like that.
 
Re: Iv been everywhere man

Fascinating stuff man. You are now a French wine and cheese connoisseur. ;D
 
Re: Iv been everywhere man

Ahhhhhh, the fromage magnifique! I think the real find was all those wheels of cheese.
And a good bottle of wine.
Does your permission to hunt the castle have an expiration?
 
Re: Iv been everywhere man

No. Im def going back, the owner apologized to my friend and was so sorry he was out of town and got the message so late.
 
Re: Iv been everywhere man

another cool find from the alley. probaly a dog tag

Re: Iv been everywhere man

Did one of those coins have Chief Joseph on it? Jimbob
 
Re: Iv been everywhere man

youd have to educate me about the coins
 
Re: Iv been everywhere man

Picture overlooking Varambon that little alley you see between the 2 walls is where I detected, the castle is behind and above me.
If you look close you will see a small room sticking up a little right of center pic, and about 5 roofs right of the bell tower, that was my bedroom.
