Default Road Trip with the Pirate

My stepson invited me up to the big city yesterday to show me where the college kids crowd at the river. Wow! What a fun time. I have numerous pictures to post. I found several rings, with only one being "real". Two of the rings almost gave me a cardiac!! I'll post those separately. Found some clad, many pulltabs, and a couple earrings,and some other trinkets. I didn't get home until late last night, but it was fun. Can't wait to get back up there. The "real" ring is 10k, and is pretty heavy, with a bunch of small diamonds. Looks to be a man's size 10. Terri, you will enjoy your Pirate!!!

Wow, that's pretty awesome! I'll for sure check out the Pirate. Have you dropped the headphones in the water, yet?

Congrats on that very sweet ring DF! That is a keeper for sure. Good to hear the pirate is a good unit, Beale.

No, I hope not to drop them. Chances are, if they go under, my head will still be in them.... I am extra careful with them.
