I said,”maybe!” Lol!

We took the golf cart to the lake and opened up the trailer. Appears that the area is a week behind what it is back home. Since you are on the other side of the pond, I am guessing 2 weeks. But, since I don’t know how much farther you are, I threw in the 3 weeks. CYA.

11 hrs by auto-too many by golf cart
On the other side of the pond-I can skip stones in 45 minutes on Lake Ontario
But I'd never drink the water because you live up stream close to Erie.

Well here's a little cool video. I watch this guy on YouTube usually does silly stuff but he's got into metal detecting and found some cool stuff.

Watching him made me realize how much I have grown in the hobby. I was just like him! Actually, I still dig like a goofball but I am not in a groomed area. When I went out with the new group we have going, we went to a park and I about had a panic attack on the first hole I dug. I collected myself and was able to get the plugs pretty clean. I called it a fence post when he was trying to figure it out. I have dug up at least a hundred of those here. Actually went out intentionally looking for them to save the tires on my farmer’s equipment. They are extremely hard to get out when the clay is hard. Some of them I had to get the Mr to hook up the wench and pull them out with the ranger. There are still a few I had to leave in the ground. I mark them with a large rock.

Question: When there's many tasks to accomplish and it seems that that the list is long.
How do others tackle this issue?
Pick a task, stick with it no matter what till it's completely done.
Pick the most pressing do the same.
Pick a few and pick away at each one.
What are some strategies regarding the list of projects?

There’s how I should do it: pick the hardest, most time consuming project and stick with it until it’s done. And then work on down the list.

Then the reality of what I do: I do the easiest tasks and the ones needing immediate attention first, and put off the big ones.

It is funny watching him. I remember first starting and having experiences like that.
