WOHOOOOOO STANDING TALL

[bootybay]

For the last several days, I have this one thought constantly pop into my head, go to this beach...go to this beach... well, me and my arm all wrapped up in two braces went.. I figured, heck, I will go a short time so I dont hurt myself any worse.. all this took place in 10 minutes.. I got there... stood looking and turned to the rite side of the beach, high tide it was, but I was in such withdrawl it wasn't funny, so the tide didnt matter. I had even said to my hubby.. I got to go to this beach..I got a feeling... well, I dug my first hole, I find a severally worn down Indian head nickel..so worn you can barely see it... I was thrilled... My second hole, I get that high pitched sweet sound of silver... I start to dig..and what do I see, but the backside of a beautiful standing liberty... I LITERALLY stood up..and did a jig on the beach.. I was sooooooo excited it wasn't funny.. me, by myself, dancing round the beach, yelling YAY me... then I calmed down real fast as the van, with the west Va. tags was watching me.. I thought, oh great and here I am jumping like a fool...so inside I was a busting all over... it was great..MY FIRST STANDING LIBERTY... so my time was up as I was hurting..jumped in my car. locked the doors like I found this huge cache..and grabbed the cell to tell my hubby... his reply was.. YOUR s &$*(&$ me.. said NOPE I GOTS IT... so finally I am doing better...thinking, where did they all hang out years n years ago... I am so very proud of myself and what a rush... She may not be purdy to look at and ya cant see her date, but to me she is the most beautiful thing I ever saw..and she's MINE...
thanks for listening...

Congratulations, Rae!! I know just how you feel, you'll be on that cloud nine for months. You'll never forget this day, too bad no one was around to get you on camera whooping and hollering and doing your happy dance. Wonder just how many of the other T-Net females found a SLQ?

rae,
Way to go. Nice find, the kind that makes your heart pump extra hard. I am soooo happy for you. Too bad you didn't have more time to hunt while the 'window' is open. Hope your arm starts healing soon so you can get out there and load up on the silver. I am so happy for you. HH Highwater

I knew you would get there in the end with the coin/s. Not where I expected you would get it but who cares, it will be the first of many.
