    Getting close

    Got the tent out for a overnight hunting trip and it felt good!!!! Can't wait for the fresh drop season to start so a trip like that has a better chance of success. A crazy 9 hour round trip just because I like the location. :twodetecting:

    Funny

    This winter I purchased a lighter pair of scuba boots to go treasure hunting with in warmer water. I took them with us last week for 7 warms days in Texas and on the third day of wearing them I noticed they were not comfortable because they sent me two left boots. I feel so special....

    Silver ring
