Default I'm still alive...

Hi folks - still here, just been very busy and haven't had a lot of time to hunt or lurk here...

I have hunted some, though, and I've attached a pic of the noteworthy's... found them at the park I usually go to on Sundays... Sunday has become my usual scheduled day to hunt, but I ry and sneak in some more when I can...

I've also been workin on some commissions... I had one quick one that I did a couple of weeks ago, and another I'm working on now - it's not due until August, but I'm taking my time, as it's a repeat customer, and I want him to stay that way! I'll post progress pics of it when I'm far enough into it...

And, the other reason why I haven't been huntng quite as much lately s, well, last weekend I was trimming some trees in the backyard (y'all can prolly figure out where this is headed...) and, well, I kinda fell off of the ladder I was on, and landed on my side, and I have a spot that is very, very sore on my ribs... I may have actually aggravated the same spot I hurt when I fell chasing the dog (if you don't remember that incident, I'll look for my post about it...)

Any-who - just wanted to check in with y'all... finds have been amazing as usual, and I'm hoping to get back out there soon and add more of my own!

Regards,
Robert

Robert those are some very good finds! I also like the drawing very much. I am sure the customer will remain a repeat!

Very sorry to hear about your fall! I am glad you were not hurt any worse. Get some rest and relax, Beale.

So far I've found one very old license plate, a lot of nails, some funky green pennies and other misc. change.. but who's counting? I'm just here to have fun, giggle, and make friends along the way!
