Default Spent Some Hard Earned Cash Today

...well Clad that is, and it wasn't exactly earnd the hard way. Found in the local Park, and all I had to do was walk around and dig it up.

Detecting is pretty much over for me here in Ohio. Its in the mid 30's today...burrrr . Since I can't detect, I thought I'd help boost the economy by spending a little money.

My oil filled heater died last winter and I decided to get another one. So, I cashed in $50.00 worth of Clad and bought a new one. " TIPPY " is already enjoying the fruits of my labor by quietly enjoying the heat. And if anyone asks about my purchase, I'LL simply tell them.. It was nothing but a simple " Walk in the Park ".

Hard earned indeed - you know you enjoyed every minute of findin' it!! That's so awesome that you only paid for that heater with your time. And as for the kitty,... that's freaking adorable!!! My kitty enjoys sleeping on my boyfriends amplifier, she's so cute we don't have the heart to move her, we just have to vacuum it out every week or so - Snuggle up and stay warm up there!

Hey that is a nice heater! Good on you for doing that with your digs. I plan on saving mine and spending it on this hobby.

Very cute cat by the way, Beale.

Nice way to spend your clad. Heaters are good, but my cat would rather I spent money on some shrimp to feed him. He's kinda spoiled. Guess that's my fault. ,,,,Buster...

I'm next door in Indiana. Like you, I've put
away the detector for warmer days. But

next week....maybe.

Nice cat. Looks like a good mouser
