Out poking around a park picking up small change
then hit the basketball court. I go around the perimeter
of the court and also the benches etc. Good place to look.
The young kids today seem to like to wear jewlery while they shoot hoops. Bling bling :) Found a 22" 50 gram plus .925 necklace and a .925 chain type bracelet. Pretty easy pickings also as they are mostly fresh
and not down more than a couple inches if any. I get razzed a little by the wanna be future NBA stars. Hey, find any gold yet there prospector ?
After a while of that and being stooped over for a time while digging etc. I put my detector down and stand up and go over to them and ask if I can shoot a few with them. With my sneaks on I am just a tad shy of 6'6" so they laugh and say O.K. old man. I'm 55 but not old. Well,
grandpa to some of them maybe. Funny how a tune can change real quick sometimes after you throw down a few. Nothing racially biased here or anything, but let's just say I'm a little paler than most of these guys. Who was the idiot that said white men can't jump :)
After a while they are all cool with me and wanna check out the detector. I do not mention any bling. I'm bad.

Will have to shoot some hoops next time I'm down under.
So, you can actually touch your toes ? This ought to be a fun game
Curious ? does the ball spin CC or CCW down there ?
I know the toilets flush backwards.
Guess I could of showed them the bling I found.
Not too concerned. I always carry my anti theft device
around with me.
