Default Nice Job Urb!!

Urb-
Great story! I love hearing the tales of fellow newbies. I wish my first hunt went that way. (well, my wife did laugh at me)

If we keep at it...we'll make that great find soon enough!

Happy Hunting!!

A tale well told. Janet the Fair sounds like a wonderful wife and Molly as faithful as they come, you've already got real treasures, Mate.

Enjoyed the story, keep'em coming,

Great story indeed Rodney, when you hit the big find, then you'll have the last laugh, at least you had a good time out digging & were some good entertainment for the neighbors.

I loved the story. I would have loved to have found an axe head on my first hunt! You must have been so excited Too bad people feel the need to make fun of stuff their jealous of, huh?
