Short hunt

Jack(IN) · Nov 28, 2007

Just might be my last hunt of the year, screwed my knee of the day before Thanksgiving and had to keep off my knee and this cold morning before I go and find out if I need surgery, with a crutch in one hand and a detector in the other made my way to a small Park near me. Sorry, no pic but managed a Washington dollar, seven quarters, eight dimes, seven nickels, eight memorial cents, and a note to myself for doing something stupid. Looks like 10,000 is not going to happen, but had a great year as far as numbers, not so good in the gold/silver numbers tho. But hey, that Bust Half made my year!!

That ought to have been a sight to see, hobbling around with a metal detector
& a crutch. Hope you can avoid surgery, but if not good luck with it. I'm waiting
to go in for a detached bicep & torn rotator cuff, I know that won't be a fun rehab. Good huntin'

That really bites, Jack, the knee I mean. Hope it all works out good.

Sorry to here about your leg Jack. Can one use a scooter from Walmart and metal detect? ;-)

I went to the South end of the gorge and checked a site up on the west hillside. There is a concrete stair and rail that goes up to a flat spot that has a stone wall in the hillside. Found three 1950's wheaties and some TV antenna aluminum.

Called it quits and hit a combined corn field on the way home to scarf up some eyeball-detected missed ears of corn for the squirrels to eat on our window sill this winter - drives my cats nuts.
