Default Broke the ice barrier today!

I have been skunked most of my hunts for the past 2 months. I did find the 10 Kt cross in the picture last month and that made me feel better.

Today looked bleak. I found 6 quarters in a "Honey hole" and I was heading in when I heard a hopeful tone. Up came this 14 Karat engagement ring with 7 small diamonds! Man that felt good!

Tested the diamonds and they test positive. I celebrated with a nice steak tonight for dinner!
