Had a little road trip today!!

[BigCatDaddy]

I needed to head over to the town a couple of counties to the west where my buddy lives today. Late week, I took him into Austin to pic up his '64 Bug from the shop. When he got out, he forgot his keys to his casa and Camry's in the console, hence the trip over. Well, anyways since there is a nice big park there by the lake, I used the morning to give it a once over. Good grief!! I though I had hunted some trashy parks before, but the ATP and 5x8 coil sounded like machine gun fire!! So I weaved and bobbed and swung and dug, the best I could!! Here's the take for the 3 hrs. I spent.

Yes, those are washers, for playing Washers!! Those about blew my Grey Ghosts right off my head!! And the ring is Tungsten Carbide, came in at a 71 VDI, if you're interested. Not sure what the blue thing is. It's enamel on what appears to be copper, had a "D" on the back.

Not the best hunt I ever had, but it darned sure wasn't the worst. Good golly, I'm loving retirement!!

That unknown piece looks like it's related to girl Guides. Cool ring too!

You really need to darn those Jeans..... When I was a little lad, my mom always said "keep it closed or the birdy will fly out"
