It will soon be two years since I dug it and of all the coins I've found she is still my favourite...

No matter how many I have followed in BC, I still have that feeling of being crushed.

My Grandfather was killed that way....He was scaling a truck load of logs in Hayfork, Ca. and they broke loose and crushed him. My Mom was carrying me the year that it happened....1950. Wish I could have got to know him....
 

If I am ignored or not acknowledged after I make a comment or a post on someones thread.
I will delete my comment or post... good or bad.
Not always... but mostly.
Sometimes I just forget to go back and do it... get sidetracked or whatever...
Eventually I will run across it again and then do it.

Sheesh nothing worse that "talking" or giving compliments... to only be treated like a "?" who cares.
So... I am not party to this "disrespect" and "rude" crapola.

And I sure as hell am not gonna leave it just "hang" ...
Sorry I am oldschool...
Momma and daddy raised me better than that.

So now ya know :P

Condolences also T.C.

It's a very dangerous world if a person has anything to do with the logging industry. My father started at 12 in the camps, did 15 jumping and running logs on the water, 17 sawing cants in the mill. He looked at the calendar one day, phoned them up and quit, 50 yrs is long enough to be working retired at 62 and got another 27 yrs of retirement. He said one day to my brother and me, "I don't care if you dig ditches for a living, but please stay away from the mill" Majority of the men retired at 65 and were lucky to see a few more calendars change. :(
 

I was detecting in some serious dense woods in S.C....
I came across a foundation... then not soon after I cam across headstones... about 6-7 of em...
Most of em you could not read...
Then there was a small one..
I bent down to brush and read...
It simply said...
"here lies Jed"
"a tree fell on his head"
And a date that I cannot remember but it was like 1890 or something...

No joke.

I ended up in a mill also. Good money hard and dangerous work tho.....I also told my sons, do anything but millwork. They actually listened to me!! The only good thing....you couldn't ask for a better bunch of guys!!

I'am sorry to here that T.C. I have lost a few friends in logging accidents here on the coast. Tough job.
