One wonders what I could find if I had just one more inch of depth.<\/p>\n<p>Today I was skunked on silver at the same site, but pulled a 3-ringer.\u00a0 This site is no where near civil war activity, so go figure.<\/p>\n<p>I hate writing skunked entries, so I&#8217;m glad I found the 3-ringer to give me something interesting to post.\u00a0 I did find quite a few wheaties today; it seems the dimes were just out of range (remember, the wheaties are a bit bigger, and will have the halo the dimes won&#8217;t, so they are just a little easier).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m in a bit of a slump, no mega silver days, no big or spectacular silvers, but you have to just keep soldiering on thru it. The 3-ringer is a cool thing to find and talk about (especially in this area), but there is no substitute for that rush of seeing the shiny in the hole.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/042512.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-323\" title=\"042512\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/042512.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"406\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/042512.jpg 406w, https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/042512-300x173.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 406px) 100vw, 406px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/042612.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-564\" title=\"042612\" src=\"http:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/042612.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"369\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/042612.jpg 369w, https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/042612-300x203.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 369px) 100vw, 369px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday I went back to the site I hit a random silver on 4\/17, which I had given up for dead.\u00a0 A long hunt gave up a pair of silver coins.\u00a0 I was lucky, as the grass had just been &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/archives\/322\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/322"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=322"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/322\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":326,"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/322\/revisions\/326"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=322"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=322"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.puzzlemaze.org\/df\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=322"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
