And now the rest of the story. The frost is out of the ground, I'm another year older (no smarter), and I went backup in the hills to dig my treasure. I dug up the rest of the metal box and all the way around it, sifted the ground, and found nothing. Guess I'll just keep searching, but I'm getting old and runing out of leads and time.

Shucks son.

I'm a sitting here with my head in my hands, elbows on my knees, and rolling my head back and forth...wondering when the end of this tale was going to be told.

To think that since you were knee-high to a Blue Tick hound and it took you neigh on to 66 years to find your search was in vain...

Must be a bummer, son.

Hope you wasn't planning on this money to bankroll your retirement.

Whatcha goin to do now?

at least you came back in spring and posted for us all, thank you for that.

Well that was a fun little story... and the feller even came back! ...after a bit of abuse!

I think at 66 a fella might know best when to leave something that's been sitting, set a bit longer...
...and he SAID he went over hill and dale to get to the place...
Sticksboards?
Might be wise to leave it be if weather was comin' in, late in the day, and he walked with a stick? or two

I know what I was capable of when I was a young buck.
There wasn't hardly a limit when I was well motivated.
May not make it to 67 like Sticks, but now I know pretty much which tasks should be put off 'til manana.

Good luck in 'yer hunt Sticks...
Now's about a good time as any for you to partner up with one of these young bucks that live in your area...
Get r' dun!

Pass on all of your research to a son/daughter or grandson/granddaughter. If you've researched that long and spent that much time, it would be nice for someone else to take up the hunt when you're gone someday. Just a thought.

I been trying hard not to pile on ol' Sticks but since he's my junior I will add this:
Had Sticks gone ahead and dug braving icy winds and cantaloupe sized snowflakes
we wouldn't have this HOOT of a story to reminense over.
