From the land of the Bluenose.....after sleeping in till 0710hrs it was time to get up and get at her. Domestics done along with breakfast and it was out the door to the Dingle as the tide was low and I thought of doing the shoreline. Otto of course was asking for a drink the whole way there. Man that bouy is a gasaholic. Noticed that the tower is under repair once again.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7cf00b3127cceb15b71c64f4800000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
Had to put up with a bit of a smell but that is part in parcel of doing the Northwest Arm which has raw sewage running into it. Of course a harbour cleanup is under way and at present is like a political pingpong game with millions of dollars spent on studies with nothing done!<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7cf00b3127cceb15b71dbce6500000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
Nice to be in the "dew" by choice and on the third signal out popped my silver fix which I took a photo of when home.<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7cf00b3127cceb15b71d1ce6f00000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center> This is an Edward V11 dime that I couldn't get a date off of but his coinage runs from 1902 to 1910.
From there it was off to the big park which produced quite a few loonies and other coins. Nice to see that all was peaceful a digging with no incidents.
Got tired of digging up modern coins and tried the railroad tree park area to no avail. Just a few modern with the swinging tough in the high grass and the view priceless!<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7cf00b3127cceb15b71b04f3e00000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
Anywat got home in time to start supper which consisted of homemade french fries and Bambi steak...Marie almost gagged and opted instead for wings at Key Largo's with her sisters. Did a quick tumble of today's finds and added that to her money so she could have a good feed. Day before payday is a tough one four shore me bouy! Don't know what she missed!
Take for the day was a silver dime, flattened penny and 61 coins @ $11.18<center><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b7cf00b3127cceb15b71da4f5400000026108AcM2bhk4ZN2"></center>
