Cabin Fever! Due To Rain!

[whitebutler]

Hating the lightning! I couldn't hear signals any longer. I had to leave after a great day in the rain diggin. I dug all the .22 slugs from three counties and a half ton of canslaw. Finally a bit luck. The J shape is 12.2 DWT and a total of 16.1 DWT. I'm happy for the day.

Nice clean gold, and really interesting shape!

Swinging a three foot lightning rod in a thunderstorm must be disconcerting, to say the least.

[Chris Ben]

Great looking gold!

[whitebutler]

Yes it was Steve. I could hear the lightning coming about an hour before it got to the area. I was becoming uneasy toward the end.

Great gold.

What were the ground conditions like?  

You were using the 14"?

[whitebutler]

Using 14" and I was soaked. The ground was even running water on the hillsides. Super wet but I had fun.

I tend to find my best gold in the worst conditions. Good job!

[deathray]

Fantastic! Enough with the rain already!!

Well done whitebutler 

Love the J piece, that`s a terrific find.

But I had to google what canslaw was. I`d never heard the term before

cheers Dave
