Default Parker's Park Hunt

Got up early this fine morning and went down to my favorite park here in Parker...good clad day - $2.00....also found a good-sized chunk of an old cap pistol (I noticed quite a few folks are finding these of late!) and the tine portion of what I think is a real silver fork...the handle portion is missing - so there is no stamp or markings...I'll confirm whether or not it's silver -and if so, will add it to my stash for future sale!

Just a beautiful day in Colorado...but only 17 DAYS until the Florida Beach Hunt!

I'd really love to - but you're right - it's a LONG way from Daytona Beach to Ft. Walton Beach...and Peg wouldn't be happy if she had to spend most of her vacation in a car! ... and you know the saying..."If Mama ain't happy - ain't NOBODY happy!"
