Good evening folks.
Hope everyone has had a great day.

Jim,

Keeping out of mischief. I picked a big batch of riverfront grapes the other day and boiled them down to make juice.

Just finished filtering out the sludge which is tataric acid it gives a bitter after taste and some people may be allergic to it.

Tomorrow I'll do a 2nd straining and then boil it up with sugar and lemon juice to make some jelly. Should be good for about 12-8 oz jars.

It has a very intense grape flavour unlike the domestic eating grapes.

I actually have been watching... wait for it... Oak Island.

I know I know... blah blah... I was sucked in for the simple fact I have to stay updated from time to time...

I mean after all... the word "treasure" is involved... and that alone deserves an eyebrow raise from time to time...

just have to check in and make sure nothing has changed from all the other times.

I watch every now again for a day to further solidify my belief... THAT NO TREASURE IS THERE !

Heh...

Besides... I do find the "lengths" in which they are willing to go... um...... interesting would be the best word. :P

ARC,

As much as I like Gary Drayton on a personal level just about all the shows and/or videos are primarily hype and not what real metal detecting is all about.

Keeping out of mischief? Uncle!
You must get your mischief quota well on it's way before winter.
Lest you get drummed out of the Bermuda Gang...

Well sir, I work for my husband, so my services will still be needed. He told me he was ready for a stay at home wife. Which translates that he wants supper on the table when he gets home from work. But, yea, a digging I will be anytime I want. [emoji4]

 

[ARC]

Off... hold fast Tnet crew... steady as she goes.

G night.

 

[WHADIFIND]

Sleep well, Cap'n.

[h=2]In Flanders Fields[/h][FONT=&quot]By John McCrae[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]In Flanders fields the poppies blow[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Between the crosses, row on row,[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]That mark our place; and in the sky[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The larks, still bravely singing, fly[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Scarce heard amid the guns below.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]We are the dead. Short days ago[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Loved and were loved, and now we lie,[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]In Flanders fields.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Take up our quarrel with the foe:[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]To you from failing hands we throw[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]The torch; be yours to hold it high.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]If ye break faith with us who die[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]We shall not sleep, though poppies grow[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]In Flanders fields.[/FONT]

Pepper... I see you are a fan of poetry.

Pepper... I see you are a fan of poetry.

Not really ARC.
It's just one that I read each year on this date 11.11.11 to remember the ones that served.

 

[ANTIQUARIAN]

Good morning ARC and Jim.


Another Remembrance Day here in Canada... another day to remember those who gave their lives for our freedom.

Thank you to everyone who served or who is serving our great countries!
