Might as well... found the last day of August.
Havent had any time to dig. The boy and i walked down to feed the ducks this morning. Had a little rain last night and when we walked past our pile from the last hole this little gem was sitting right on top, glowing in the sun. Dont know how we missed it. I picked it up and i know you could have heard the boy scream2 PhotosJudith Basin, Montana

The last pic is next to the one I found last year. That one got a lot of votes so we'll see what happens this time. Happy voting and let's see some more entries eh?!
