Robert's Ramblings

In my short time fossicking for gold in the Adelaide Hills I have learned two important lessons.

The first is that you are going to dig up a lot of trash and the second is it's only ever about fun and exercise, any yellow shiny stuff is a bonus.

In an estimated 40 hours of poking around I have found plenty of lead shot, bullets, shell casings, nails, slugs, screws, brass fittings, miner's brass buttons, an old brass picture frame and various unrecognizable lumps of rusted iron and even an old Lucas engine hour meter.

I wonder what I will find this weekend?
