Finally... first outing of the year and a ring!
It's been a rough winter. My Dad passed away last month, my Father-in-law also had a rough time. Between visits back to ND for family, then the funeral, and dealing with all his gun collection, and of course... my regular job, it's been hard to find time. Now that the snow is receding, and much of the hard family stuff is in order, I finally got out for a while this weekend. It wasn't long -- only 1.5 hours or so -- but it was out! I even managed a little silver ring, a 42 wheat, and just under $2 in clad! Unfortunately, I couldn't dig the deep signals as ice was still found as shallow as 4" in some spots! Anyway, it's good to be getting back at it after such a long winter! It's also good to be getting back here to TQ!
