Oh my gosh! When's this rain gonna end? Every stream, creek, pond and river aught'a have enough water in 'em to last the rest of the year around here! Now I'm trying really hard not to complain too much. Lord knows I remember this past couple of years when the ground was like concrete and I'm thankful for the most part...but cripes! I'm thinkin' we've had enough for a while!

OK...I feel a bit better. On to the meager finds of the past couple of hunts.

Lisa and I went back to the old cabin in the woods place for a couple of hours. (In between rains)

Found a couple or three wheats...1918 and two 1920's I think it was. And the ever present tax token. Found a neat little buckle and made a rookie mistake (I've only been at this for three years.) (I knew better.) Yeah, I put it in my pocket. And yes, it's gotta really sad crack going across it now.

It cleaned up pretty good...just could kick myself for putting it in my pocket tho.

Next little hunt (in between rains)....out back in the pasture. I wanted to try out my new coil I got for Christmas, in a place that has lots of iron. Found two overall buttons and horseshoe, buckles and all the other stuff that goes with it. Found a neat little bell...it had some kinda outfit in the same hole with it...Electric doorbell? Here? I love my new coil by the way!

I've been wanting to walk down this creek by the house and finally talked Charlie into going with me. Lots of broken pottery a couple of fossils and a few pieces of flint, but no points. I know they're there! I wanna go back soon. Maybe all this rain has washed up a tad of gold for me too, huh Billy?

OH...let's not forget the bullets for Monty...

Have a dry week! And find somethin' good!

Some great finds there as always....might wanna take a life raft with ya though! Gracious that is a lot of rain!!

 

[Montana Jim]

Sorry about the rain Nana! Great vid though... I listened to the music again while I read the post... good job!

 

[SilverDreams]

Nice finds! Those fossils are called Crinoids (prehistoric plant stems) I've found quite a few in some fill dirt my dad had brought in. I think I'm going to have to swim to work tomorrow!

Sweet finds, I think your drought in Alabama may be over.
JDD

Nice finds! Too bad about the buckle though. You might go back to some of those tore out house sites and see what's been washed out of the ground. Sometimes with the rain, you just have to go with the flow. (ugh--can't believe I wrote that).

Great finds Nana - I especially like the beautiful pieces of glass/pottery and stone. That rain has been "hanging" around here for the last two days as well. It's wreaking havoc on the senses...

You better tie yourself to a tree if you go down by the creek today Alabama Nana. We had a lot of rain in Tennessee that will be flowing down your way. Nice Finds!!! Hope you find some silver there!!! HH.

That's some really nice finds. I really like the buckle.

Terrific,Nana gal! I've seen how those pants fit,they look great and you look great in them, but I don't see how you could get anything in a pocket! Glad you like the coil.No tellin' what will wash out of those banks.Check 'em good when the water goes down.There will be some points in a creekbed,but you'll find more of them if you can find where the indians camped.I can't believe how much you have improved and learned since Otterville.You are a pro now and know what that MXT is telling you.I'm proud of you.

I can't believe that tomatoes are $1.99/ Lb.

Hope the water receeds soon for you. On the bright side, it might wash up some stuff from waaayyyyy up stream. Good luck to you. By the way, cute puppy!

 

[crazyjarhead]
