Many people bury money or valuables for different reasons. Sometimes its best to say nothing more. I knew this cache was there for years but I just couldnt find it. Everything looks the same in the woods. I was beginning to think it was no longer there. Its really nothing to be proud of. No research was involved, no dowsing, no remote viewing, no LRLs. My detector didnt beep because it was too deep. But I am happy I did finally retrieve it. Im still in pain from digging.
It just goes to show that even though I knew it was there, I still couldnt find it for years. You could be just a few feet off. If I had died, it would have probably died with me. Several other people knew of this cache but probly would have never located it, unless by accident. Actually a backhoe had already scraped the area and I thought it may have already been found.
Yes Im sure there are many buried caches that are lost forever. As an example, my uncle buried a fortune in gold coins and we never found it. He actually invested in a Colombian gold mine before his sudden death. He was a pilot and flew back and forth. My aunt thinks some workers may have accidentaly discovered his gold and stole it. But it may still be buried. But nobody knows where.. Should I go searching for it lol while Im on a roll? Everyone else in my family has given up.
