LOL!!! It is a good thing I am retired! However, a tree fell on one of my' trucks and my duaghter's car during a storm last night and I have to get it cut-up and off of them.

Patience guys!

you have to understand I'm in a relatively small community where things don't go unnoticed, and I gotta be discreet!

Yeah, we understand but I don't have any fingernails left much less fingers! Some folks might be up to their' elbows.:headbang: LOL!!!

Wow...I read the 310 post here and have come to a couple of conclusions.

Frank, You would make a good neighbor and I truly hope your little sis is comfortable.

BVI, How exciting just reading about your adventure! I hope you are able to continue posting w/out revealing to much. I know you have the local lurker near by watching so be safe.

peace,

Ken
 

Yeah I agree with all, I am newbie and get so excited over other people's finds, especially ones like yours! Keep us posted if you can and thank you.

RiverBoarder,

Thanks and especially thanks for the kind words for my' sister! She is doing much better now but can't tolerate having an heart catheterization done since she has a fracture(s) in her' spine from where she fell. The fracture(s) and her staying immobile because of the pain, is much of what brought her health problems on. The Doctors plan to fuse the fractures soon and with a little bit of rest and therapy, she may be able to get on her' feet again. They will still need to do the heart catheterization to see how much damage her' heart suffered but for now, she is doing well and getting better by the day.

No on to other stuff! I sure hope that BVI Hunter can reveal the surprise today! I need to finish clearing the tree that fell across and damaged one of my' trucks and my daughter's car but can't seem to pull myself away from this Thread.


Frank
 

Ah, bless you Frank (huntsman53). So sorry about your sis, that is tough! Hope you get the trees moved and can save the vehicles!
 

Honestly, without using too much imagination I see a something covered with seaweed. If I really use some creative imagination I see a treasure chest full of pirate treasure.:skullflag:
 

From the 1 pic i can see via the terrible Tnet. App.
Looks like a cascabel of a cannon tube. :)
 

How about NOW??

I went out with my camera on a weighted line and set the timer and dropped it over the side, after about a 150 pics of nothing but fish, I hit this?

two things that get my Spidey Senses tingling...

1) this is the exact same spot where the "old gentleman" told me he used to see a Pen*s on the sea bed when he was younger
2) the debris field of finds I have been plotting leads to this area

Please excuse my poor attempt at drawing with a mouse!

tell me I'm not wrong?

I think there is possibly a coin in the front of the first picture and some kind of manmade piece of the canon. The coin looks very white so it could just be a shell or a sand dollar but it looks like a nice big coin to me.

Thanks for posting something. This is completely cool and I hope you find lots of great stuff before the government types get Involved.

Here is what I think is the coin:

Here is the man made piece of the canon maybe.
