    It's been a while since you been on here even tho the finds still been coming as seen on NECD. I thought this was different than the last post but from the red background pic I see it's the same, however, my comment didn't stay on that post for some reason. That KG is in great shape. Hoping this year I can find one that isn't a bit toasty. Good the gf gets out with you. Mine actually said I just gotta choose a site that produces well.... but that still entails her needing to be at a site to see how it produces. She saw Dominique's vid last night with me and maybe it occurred to her that YouTube vids on the subject are cut away so it just seems like finds happen every few min which is not reality. She made a comment on "maybe parts are cut from the video". Lol. Any date on the buff?

    Lol. I don't forget things that trivial. It's happened before on FB for other posts. Could just have to do with the signal strength or possibly flukes with closed groups and somehow the software doesn't recognize credentials after losing signal and re-connecting to mobile network ... ehhh.. not important.
