LuckyLundy Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 It was one of them days, my first target was a keeper. My Wife, Robin is suffering from a spell of back pains, she was slowy catching up to our location for the morning hunt. I showed her my dink and told her to check this area real good. I moved several yards from her, so our machines wouldn't talk to each other. I was hunting about 15 minutes when she ask me to dig the rest of the fairly deep hole. She looked like she was in some pain, so I went over and asked where is the target. The bottom right cornor of the hole she said. 4 more inches down and the target was out of the hole, a big banging target. I told her it's one of two things a square nail or a nice nugget! I got the target in my scoop, the first try and grabed a handful of dirt from it. I had the target in my hand, dumped the dirt in the scoop and tossed my handful of dirt back into the scoop. I heard something hit the bottom of the plastic scoop, I told her it was a nugget and it sounded pretty nice. I seen it when I shook the scoop and handed her a dirty nugget, she asked what is it? I told her to wipe the dirt off...then she smiled (4.1 dwt'er). I scraped up one more dink and we called it a day! Robin, is red hot and I'm going to ask her to pick up some Lotto tickets! Until our next hunt!LuckyLundy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell Robin I'll put her in my suit case when I go to WA.(HA) I will be happy with one of those in the Outback. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
