From the land of the Bluenose...the internal time clock began it's droning monologue. "Get up you lazy coot the day is a wasting and it's time to go a digging." Couldn't shut it up so after a good 4 hours sleep it was time to hit the road. A short trip to the Bedford area and the digging began.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce02b3127cce8e3d1cd485af00000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
Pennies were a popping and to be honest this bouy was getting pretty worn out. Then out popped this little puppy and the energy was renewed.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce02b3127cce8e3d1cd9049200000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center> Marked "Shipton" on the inside along with sterling.
I then tried the shore line which was pretty muddy with the clams spitting at me everytime I dug a hole in the toxic oooze not too mention that it smelt like a heavily used toilet bowl.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce02b3127cce8e3d1cde85a500000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
Here I hit a few coins, or should I say what was left of some coins that I could not identify! Maybe they were once large pennies but hard to tell.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce02b3127cce8e3d1cd885a300000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
Tried of the smell, tired due to lack of sleep and the old gullet screaming for some food (forgot to eat when I got up) Iheaded home with my pocket containing 131 coins @ $9.36, a few mystery coins and a silver ring!<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce02b3127cce8e3d1cdd049600000016108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
