I just finished a quick dig in 109 degree weather. I'm sweaty, overheated, and certainly look a sight. But I made a necessary stop at the grocery on the way home for some essentials and sundries. I mindlessly apologized to the clerk for my appearance as I paid for my items; explaining the well-earned six pack (as if it's any of his business).
"I've been working in the yard," I fibbed.
"Oh, I can appreciate that," he replied in an understanding voice.
Sometimes you just don't have it in you to field the 500 questions that inevitably arise when you mention that you're a metal detectorist.
I just wanted home, beer, bath...in that order.
As I climbed into the tub with my frosty brew, I glanced down at my legs to discover my knees, caked in dirt. I knew I looked rough, but I had no IDEA!
Oh well, all in a day's work metal detecting! (Or a good solid hour and a half before heat exhaustion kicked in anyway). Happy Dig Sunday everyone!
