    Hello kitty...and 1st silver of 2016

Size:  45.0 KBHappy new year everyone. The ground thawed enough to go digging at a pounded park for an hour resulting in a 1936 Merc, a 1956 wheatie and this beautiful ring! I'm definitely looking forward to 2016 since I retired at the end of January which means more detecting (and of course, more golf)! As I write this, it's snowing outside in Ct so maybe next week we can dig again.We'll see.

    Congratulations on your retirement. I hope it allows you to do the things you've worked hard for., like detecting! My husband retired in December, and we got him a detector and I can only hope he gets the digging bug like I have.
