    I am glad you don't play music. This way we can hear the running water or the birds chirping or any other sounds of nature. As a city person I love hearing all the nature sounds.

    I think I told you once that I could hardly believe the amount of metal you can retrieve from that one creek. Now, I'm starting to find it INCOMPREHENSIBLE how much you get out of there! I mean, in a couple of square feet, you run your magnet over the bottom , get a metric snotload of stuff, and do it again and again in the same place! WTF anyway? I live in a seaport city that's been inhabited (by Europeans, anyway) since the very early 1600s. Our last venture to the harbor, my wife and I not only found NOTHING, but lost one of our magnets! Color me envious!

This weekend is the Allien Festival in Roswell, NM. I used stuff from my dirt larking, i.e., glass shards for feathers and old automobile parts, anyway just TRASH. Spray and hand painterd the shards. He turned out quiet classy. Forgot to take a photo yesterday but I will later.

    If you don't know it already... caltrops are also used in foundry tumble mills to polish iron and steel castings. I worked at Stockham Valves in B'ham and we made them to use for that re-purpose 150 years after the civil war occurred.
