One thing for sure....

[WHADIFIND]

I can always count on this hobby to give me a laugh! You see, I repaired the shoulder strap on my AT-MATEY. So I decided to go to one of my nearby tot-lots to try it out.

I geared up and after a couple minor adjustments, I ground balanced and started swinging. Was very comfortable! A successful repair! 😊

I took one step, maybe two. Got this exceptionally clear signal. I said wow! That was quick!

I usually call my shots, I said, "quarter", before I dug. After all, tot-lot, pretty much a surface hit, a high squeak.

I scraped a few wood chips aside this is what I saw staring up at me;

Much to my embarrassment, I busted out laughing!!!! RIGHT OUT LOUD!!! Embarrassing? Because there were a few people hanging around this tot lot.

I moved across the schoolyard, after a few sweeps to be sure. When it was all quiet again, away from people. I dug this coin out of my pocket and started giggling again.

I wasn't fooled...I *KNEW* what I had found! It just struck me as hilarious 😂 ! Go to a tot lot to test my strap and this pops up!!!

Here's the other side.......

And...the rest ....

At the very least....a very interesting walk!!

Thanks for taking time to peek!!

That's just the name I gave him. It looks like any other AT-MAX with a shoulder strap added.

Thanks!

What a fun read. Thanks for sharing this funny find, Sir WHADI. I would like to know what strap you have. I could really use one on my max.
