The Purge....

[BigWaveDave]

6 years of beeping, and with the exception of silver relics, and just a handful of my favorites...
It’s all gone.
I’ve either sold, recycled, donated, or tossed everything that I considered a “keeper”

I can’t justify bringing it with me to my new life.
But my new life may bring me better digs, older coins, and historically significant relics.

I’ll miss my 200 odd pounds of junk, but we are both in a better place.

For future reference, don’t bother hunting Ft. Myers, I got it all.

200 pounds is ALOT of pulltabs!

Absolutely nothing wrong with continuing on into a new area. In fact, with the move north, your chances with finding an area where some older artifacts (coins) can be found. Good Luck!

You kept six years of junk and weighed it?

How has your wife stayed with you this long?

I lost a hammered nickle jigging spoon off the causeway last winter. Should have washed up on sanibel someplace....

So there is still stuff around ft Myers.

Honestly Jeffy, I didn’t weigh it.... it just seemed like it could have been 200 pounds of trash, as she struggled to get the trash barrel to the curb.

So, what you're saying Dave is that she had had enough?

Sometimes metal junk is just junk. Congrats.

Where do you live? Im picking it up from the curb. What can I say? Im a caretaker

 

[against the wind]

I'm not moving, I just did (2017). Maybe I should have lightened the load before the move. Probably would have saved me from renting that second U-HAUL. lol

New start is a new start I think it's a good approach have fun with the new job and home you'll have 200 more ilbs of stuff again before you put your welcome mat out on the new home lol Good post

 

[Tpmetal]

coming up north, I bet you dig 200lbs of old iron before your first year is over lol. good luck on the move

I applaud you Dave. I could never part with my "garbage" (unless it was really garbage) !
