Jim,

I thought you were retired?....:laughing7::laughing7::laughing7:

If you saw the size and location of Jim's property Bill, you'd realize this is a labour of love for him. :thumbsup:

He'll never run out of jobs to do, because he can't sit still it's not in his nature.


Good morning ARC & rook! :wave:

Folks have 2 choices in life:

Too rust out or Too wear out.

Lots of wear and tear and very little rust on this model.

Thank you so much for the help guys. :thumbsup:
I did some online shopping this morning and the Honda & Toyota products look to be the most competitive 'lease wise' when compared to GMC, Chrysler & Ford.

The Honda CRV & the Toyota Corolla Hatchback seem to be in a price range on a 3-year that I can afford, the only concern I have is the allowable mileage.
It looks to be 24,000kms or 15,000miles for the term of the lease. I'm not exactly sure if that's for all three years or per/year.

Anyway, thanks again for your help,
Dave

So much for off road/pasture detecting.

Morning guys! :hello:

Every time I drop by your place it looks different Jim, you should've taken before and after pics from the beginning following your properties transformation. :thumbsup:

I just realized what your place is missing... an authentic log cabin that you can use to display all of your detecting finds.

There has to be an old log barn or building just up the highway that you can dismantle and move to your property.

See, the projects never end do they. :laughing7:

Here are some ideas.

Dave you do realize that you are going to have to get appropriate attire on if you want to ride shotgun in my truck. After all you know very well the inside is a tad messy and dirty.:laughing7:

How about you doing a few weeks doing the rock gardens? :headbang:

Niccccce Jim, but it's probably out of my price range! :laughing7:
Unfortunately, there's not enough room for my detecting gear in this beauty.

But it is environmentally friendly... how far will it travel when the rubber band is wound all the way? :icon_scratch:

New permission kind of sucked.
Picture was rock hard. Place had burnt, not in my preferred era.
Oh well maybe in the late fall I will dig there again.

Here Dave these are only a few hundred pounds so they are an easy sort.

Morning ARC. :hello:


Notice how I didn't respond to your call for 'slave labour' to move your rocks Jim! :dontknow:

Too bad I still don't work for WN otherwise I could have arranged for you to borrow the WL95 for a few days.

The first pic is a 'stock photo', the second pic was taken at Sontrac Equipment in Ottawa, ON.

A few weeks ago when I was departing WN, I learned a number of these units had developed "operational computer issues" due to not being field tested enough before they were released by Germany. :laughing7:
