Default I reached my goal today!

I found 5 gold rings to make it to my goal of 100 gold rings!

The waves from hurricanes Dean and Felix have brought out some long buried loot and I was in the right place today.

All are 14 karat except for the pink stone ring, which is 10.

Please don't hate me!

Great job, Steve!!! That one second from the bottom looks really old. I'm just so excited for you. Very happy that you're savvy enough to take advantage of the calm after the storm! CONGRATULATIONS, buddy.
