Today may the day...

Treasures await those who seek them... but treasures can only be found if you are there.

Get out today if you can... open your mind to possibility.

You never know what might await you.

For "treasure" comes in all forms.

I wish good luck on all my fellow Tnet brethren...

May the winds fill your sails.

Well said AARC.

I gots a question for you motley fellows. First take a sip o' rum, if you so desire, then answer me this if you can-

I've heard that pirate ships were often run as democracies, with the mob of mates choosing the ship's course by rule of the majority, and the captain having power to command only during battle. The captain was more of way to delegate order and cohesion of action than as a person that made up the rule of law.

If this is the case, what were their guiding principles? And, if they had principles to guide them, isn't that closer to anarchy than democracy? I mean in the sense that no man rules over any other man. It is painfully apparent to me that a democracy will abandon their principles at the whim of the majority. That ain't no way to run a boat!

No gold....But I was saving this find for the last.Found on the beach on the 'shell line' at Melbourne ,1/2 mile South of our condo.MD set on 'All Metal'......These were among a bunch of shredded alum. Showed them to 2 seasoned treasure hunters down there, they think their old,possibly related to one of the fleets.I'm not too sure if they are,but they passed the 'Breath test' color looks good.Next week I'll take em to a good jeweler and see what they think.........097.JPG098.JPG closer look...
