I can always count on this hobby to give me a laugh! You see, I repaired the shoulder strap on my AT-MATEY. So I decided to go to one of my nearby tot-lots to try it out.

I geared up and after a couple minor adjustments, I ground balanced and started swinging. Was very comfortable! A successful repair! 😊

I took one step, maybe two. Got this exceptionally clear signal. I said wow! That was quick!

I usually call my shots, I said, "quarter", before I dug. After all, tot-lot, pretty much a surface hit, a high squeak. :dontknow:

I scraped a few wood chips aside this is what I saw staring up at me;

Much to my embarrassment, I busted out laughing!!!! RIGHT OUT LOUD!!! Embarrassing? Because there were a few people hanging around this tot lot.

I moved across the schoolyard, after a few sweeps to be sure. When it was all quiet again, away from people. I dug this coin out of my pocket and started giggling again.

I wasn't fooled...I *KNEW* what I had found! It just struck me as hilarious 😂 ! Go to a tot lot to test my strap and this pops up!!???! :laughing3:

Here's the other side.......

Thanks!
