Finally.... something decent.

Patty and I got out for an early spin this morning, temps getting up into the 60's today.
Not crowded out here...Guess everyone is on the way to the Gasperilla Fest.

http://www.gasparillapiratefest.com/ It was loads of fun last year, but we didnt want to battle the crowds this year.


First gold of the year goes to the wife with this one: (14kt R ) --stones didnt test real though and I have know idea what the "R" means.

Sometimes the R stands for rolled gold (plated) Looks like the real mcCoy though, maybe has another meaning? hopefully someone will know for sure! Live your dreams! HH regards Nugget.

Beautiful ring Paul, tell Patty congrats. It looks old, and 6 prongs holding the stone you would think it was real. As far as Gasperilla I was in the middle of all those boats last year going from the Hillsborough river to Brandenton to have my boat hauled to Sanford. Allot of drunks in boats is not a good thing. Never again. HH

Thats pretty much the main reason for not going. Would be a n ice party if everyone could handle their liquor.

Nice find, you two. I wish I was on the beach instead of shoveling snow. Mike
