MY PLAYGROUND BEFORE....

AND NOW JUST LOOK AT IT! :P

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!

Thanks, Cyn!

Thanks, Jim. You just boosted my ego! This was my first time making a short video with music and clips. Hopefully I'll get better at it.

Thanks for the ID, Silver!

JD...I'm thinkin' you're right!

Stoney...Good idea! Will get there soon as that dirt dries up a bit.

DD...YES, it is! Thanks!!

Takoda..not yet..BUT....sure been thinking about it! I have an MXT and a pan all ready to go!

Thanks Mike and Ty.

I know, Vol! Went and checked out the Mulberry river today. Looked like the little Mississippi!

WSD...Got me a brand new pair of huntin' pants with really BIG pockets! Thank you!

Thanks, Rob! Just sent him to the basement with the plans!

Thanks, Nicky!

Thanks, CT! That puppy weighs in at 110 lbs.

Hoping on easy diggin' at least for a couple of months, CJ!

Thank you Allen..

RR.... Thanks!!

Thanks, Kev!

NOOOO RF...I'll let you keep that snow!! I'm only good for a flake or two. I think we had around 54* here today, so not too bad. Thanks!!

Thanks Seger, Silver and LB!

Thanks, MM! It's a rock...looks like a rock with maybe a fossil of tree bark? I don't know very much about rocks, but this looks like limestone with some kind of other white rock attached to it..and then a pattern of some sort? :P Somebody help me out here!

Thanks again ya'll. Hopefully we'll get to hunt tomorrow.

Nice digs Nana...One heck of a storm, definitely a toad strangler. Love the video and with one of my favorite songs ever. The GMAC Bowl was played last night in Mobile during that storm. NASTY.

I cant wait to see what got washed up when you get back out there, and I always love it when you post the pup! Does he like to go huntin with you? I know he likes to supervise Charlie while hes building !

Nana: Nice relics and buckle and great video! Even your cute dog is thinking it's too soggy.

At least your ground is thawed....26 degrees and another 4 inches of snow here tonight.

Keep digging!

 

[Mental Granny]

[John-Edmonton]

What a great presentation! And of course being a good old CCR fan really added the "touch" to your posts. You got some nice relics....

 

[Nana40]

WoW! Thanks for that KD!

Rob...I know. I got that look the whole time I was there.

Thanks, Evy! And your welcome!! He'd love to go with me, but I don't want to have to keep up with him. :P
