chuck,tx2 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Gracie & I Left camp early to check out a mine that was hight up the side of this MT.that I had spied the day before, She found a dump & had no desire to go further, About 3 hr. into my climb I heard her screaming her head off & waving this old can,It took me 3 hr. get up that MT. but about 30 minutes & busted knee & sore ass to get down thinking that sweet thing had found a can of golden nuggets, WRONG, She had found an old Rusty can that was shaped like a Log Cabin. Grounds for devoice? I have never had the desire to make that climb again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitburgAggie_7377 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 well, considering one sold on e-bay recently for over $400.00, it might well have been worth hootin' and hollerin' over (of course most of them have been selling for a lot less and repro's go for under $10) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
