From the land of the Bluenose.....well the shift gathering last night was a ton of fun with good food, good company at a great location. Of course Marie drove home as she doesn't partake and I did enough for the two of us.
After making the boss breakfast in bed I was granted three hours to go a digging so I zipped out and zipped Otto down the Bihi towards Halifax and hit a school yard on a day made for swishing not a digging.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d935b3127cceb854f654f1dd00000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
This was the same school yard where I found that so called "silver French coin" and I wasn't fooled by this little number that I pulled out with both sides the same. Neat find nevertheless. Shown here after I cleaned it up a bit.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d935b3127cceb854f66370da00000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
It was shortly after this that I felt my heart go down to my gum rubbers as I looked up and noticed that Otto was wounded!<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d935b3127cceb854f66970d000000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center> That makes twice since we adopted Otto that he has been wounded in his first month with us. I was fit to be keel hauled. Headed home nursing Otto and not pushing him too hard then explained to Marie, who as best as she can figure that this happened sometime last evening while we were parked on the road with neither of us noticing the wound at that time....I of course had an excuse for not noticing! Thank goodness for brother-in-laws as a friend of Steve is going to doctor Otto back to health for a mere $300. Man I could never damage someone's car and not tell them but I guess this world is full of all kinds.
Take for the day was a key, the coin dewy and 30 coins @$2.53<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7d935b3127cceb854f66b70d200000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
