    Hi Folks, Its me again.

    Hello guys & gals.
    Wow, it's been a while. Got to try to figure this all out again. Been down with a bad knee. Dr. wanted to do a replacement. But aid I wouldn't be able to police anymore. I got to try to make it at least three more years till I can get on medicare. So he scoped it instead, to try to buy me a few more years. Still hurts like, "who'd a thought it"! Weather down here been crappy. Cold and wet, all winter. I know you guys up north have it bad. It's snowed down here three times this winter. VERY unusaual for down here. I did get out and hunt today, between showers. Knee is killing me. I will try to post pictures, if I can figure it out. Everything looks so different.
    Anyway, results for today. Hunted a house built arount 1913. Hand full of clad, 1 marble, 4 wheats, 1946, 52, 55, 56. 1 1925-D Merc. 1 1908 Barber quarter. And a 1999 Madas Gras coin.

    Sorry about the knee problems. That has to be aggravating. Hopefully the scoping helped some and the pain will lessen when the weather gets better.

    But wow, you had an awesome hunt! Barber Quarters are one of the funnest coins to find and that one looks great! Nice Merc too, and a lovely bonus marble!

    Congrats on the finds and I hope to be seeing you around here more often.

    Great Hunt Cody!! Love the Barber coins, especially the bigger ones. Give the knee some time to heal and hopefully it will last until the bionic one come in.

    Good to hear you're getting some help with the knee and able to get out again.

    Nice Barber, BTW
