Had a free hour or so this afternoon (Monday) so hunted the top of a river nearby. You might remember I went there a for a look during summer but wasn't impressed with the mosquitos, so retreated to the relative safety of beach hunting again.
A lot of trash in the ground so I had the Ace 150 on jewelry mode most of the time. Filled up a bucket with above and under ground junk.
Then came across the foundation walls of an old ninja house (didn't know that they slept standing up?!), or maybe just part of a modern BBQ?
Dug the TAKARA bottle top and knew I was on to something - Takara means treasure in Japanese!
And sure enough our ninja friends (or some modern day BBQing equivalent?) left a few coins and a deep silver ring too. That's the second silver ring from around there......mmmm......interesting.....I'll be back......a continuing story.......
Should carry 'Takara' with me from now on and when a Japanese person asks what I'm doing I'll show it and say I'm just searching for national treasure bottle tops.
