Jim,

Yep...sterling requires a purity of .925 silver....I've found silver with different purity levels such as 850, 875 and 975, etc though.

My silver ring that I thought was 18th century was marked 925...a modern....cheap...wire ring....how disappointing. Most times im super excited to see the 925 mark....not this time !!

Caught wind of a boat overturning in the keys.

Yes ... cuban migrants I believe ARC....also large amounts of cocaine and weed are washing in up and down the keys recently !! The modern day wreckers will be out in mass !!

Didn't recognize you on the small screen till I enlarged your new look-too cool-actually it's very cool. Sorry to hear your ring wasn't old, but that's a small compared to the whale you landed.

Something weird is going on with the treasure finds...seems almost every time I find the old treasure coins there is also a modern silver ring drop associated with the spot. I get a modern silver ring each time I find old treasure coins...each time I get excited thinking they are related, and each time im disappointed!! And I can travel 400+miles and it still happens....some one is trying to tell me something....ill interpret this sign as ...Bart keep your eyes open for the real deal treasure ring !! I'd like to find one like Mr draytons emerald treasure ring !!

It looks like it didn't get as cold as predicted either-but close. The 40% chance of moisture was another zip also. Hope you're gardens are ok as well.

Bart very fitting new avatar! Jim a quick look and appears everything is fine in the garden we have to do some serious watering later this a.m. since it was windy all day yesterday and the raised beds tend to dry out a lot.

Sweltering hot with 85% humidity...breeze has died off, and thunderheads are forming across Florida bay to west north west. The bay is slick calm like a sheet of glass !!

Almost every memorial day weekend it rains.....like clock work this week ushers in the summer rainy season !!
