Howdy Folks. Yeah, I did actually make it out for a few hours. Hit an old city dump and a field in my old stomping grounds and just a few miles from the Command Center. I didn't expect much and I was NOT disappointed.
I did actually enjoy finding as much non ferrous scraps, bits, melted stuff as I did. My fingers got pretty frosty so I skedaddled for home.
I am mainly posting to express my appreciation and gratitude for all the wonderful T-net friends that have renewed my passion to get after some cool old goodies. I am quite certain if not for ya'll being as crazy as me to go out into the snow and rain to dig trash with the hopes of maybe finding an old coin or cool relic I would have hung it up for the season awhile back. Then I would likely NOT have recovered my first Flying Eagle Cent, crazy 14K Gold ring with the loose diamond, 1784 Spanish reale coin, etc. So thank ya'll very much for encouraging me to continue on this wonderful journey we all love so dearly. T-netters are THE BEST FOLKS EVER!!!

I grew up seeking adventures in northern Illinois rural farm country. Climbing through corn cribs, hay lofts, roaming through creeks, abandoned farm houses, etc. That little kid is still alive and very enthusiastic about sifting through old garbage dumps, corn fields, woods, cellar holes, you name it. I guess you can say this sport of treasure hunting is like my fountain of youth! I do refer to it as my therapy quite often because it does bring me peace of mind and much pleasure. Once again, thank you sincerely for the very nice compliment. I will continue to try and be a blessing to ya'll as long as I can sit upright and take nutrition. Peace!
Ya'll have a wonderful non frozen winter. I hope many Indians and other fine coins and relics will emerge under your coil in the coming year.
