I wasn't going to go back out today... yesterday's finds were pretty big (for me) and I'd gotten all bit up by fire ants on my right hand.? And I do mean bit up!? My right paw is swollen and the giant sores they caused makes it look like I've got leprosy!? So, I really wasn't going back out there today...
But... well, when I drove past a familiar playground I realized that there was a good sized parking area I hadn't searched yet.? It was soft ground (lots of rain lately) and shaded under trees, so the heat didn't feel all that bad yet at 11 a.m.? ?I took about 3 steps away from my trunk and hit on a dime and then a quarter.? I thought this was a good sign... and I was right!? About 10 more steps away I landed on a chain that was curled up on itself in the dirt.? As I pulled it loose, I saw that there were no breaks and it looked to be a nice silver chain.
I think I was wrong.
When I got home to clean it, I grabbed the magnifying glass to look for that all-important ".925".? It wasn't there.? Instead, there were two nice "14K" symbols on each end...!? That's got to mean it's white gold, right? Please tell me it's not another heart stopper!
Either way, since I only wear silver - it's going to look real nice on my neck from now on.
