Looks like someone photoshopped my she-shed into their meme.

Or we had the perfect vision. 🤷‍♀️

We used drive 70 miles one way for Danny's Strawberry cheese cake.
Took us almost 3 hrs one time, seemed that going 30 mph was like 130 mph.🤣

Got out for like 2 hours today, not much found but still enough to keep me going.

Musket ball and a bullet casing, it's a pretty large caliber, 20/25mm ?

One token that does need to be explored more as it may just be me but there seems to be very slight writing and maybe a small star on the edge?

As well as 2 buttons of course because an outing wouldn't be completed without them

Congrats!

Good morning, all. Winter has definitely arrived. It's -6 outside right now. Had to go throw more wood on the fire. It's not the same as the one the pioneers used, but still, it's hard to beat a wood fire in a cast iron furnace.

Honestly they couldnt of made both charging connections more difficult if they tried🙄.. whereas the pin pointer and head phones are both dreamy!! Sooo bizzare…!! 🤔 xx

Nice.

I've often wondered why they didn't make the coil so you can just plug the charging cable straight into it instead of into that clamp thing. I'd have been happy to add an extra ounce to the coil weight to never have to mess with that clamp.

It's made so that:
A. Dirt doesn't get into the coil as it's hard to water/dirt proof a connector unless they made it fiddly like the RC one.

B. Avoids damage as the connector break a lot so you avoid costly charging port repair like on phones

Could have it it a magnetic connector like the minelab ones tho, same principle as theirs but magnets not a clip

If you want to sell them have a look at what prices they do ask for them.
General price range seems $40+ for a hemp sack.
I got a bunch from a grain storage when I demo'd a large barn 7 yrs ago.

Ah, good point. I didn't think of that.

It’s so cold the battery died on my outdoor thermometer sensor! Local TV says it’s -6.

 

[Gulf Coast Pirate]

Good morning! Cold 47 degrees this morning!

Flipped on the driveway cam. Still snowing and blowing sideways.

It's usually the simplest reasons we don't think of xD

Good morning all. Have a wonderful Sunday.

What's xD?
I have never seen this before.
So I looked it up, and now I know why I have never seen it before.

“Xd” is an emoticon commonly used in text messaging, chat, TikTok, and Snapchat to indicate laughter or a joke. It is often used as an alternative to “Lol” (laugh out loud).

Learnt something this AM-even though I probably won't use it, at least I'll know the next time I see it.
