    Jerry, not bad for a few hours of fun & fresh air! The ground here is thawing out nicely, I'm in hopes of getting out within the next few weeks.

    Ken, how is it up your way?

    Still have snow halfway to my knees in the woods, many yards have only snow banks and some grass is showing. It's still going to be awhile and there is talk of more snow for next week. When will it end??

    I hit a tot lot myself yesterday. Ended up clearing 12 cents. The economy is rough in Michigan right now! At least my dog had a good time running around.image

    After reading Rick's note about the ring, I gave the picture a closer look. Jerry can you tell if those are Roman numerals one through ten creating the design? If so, it might be a Covenant wedding ring. I've only seen two in my life and both belonged to deeply theological individuals. The numerals represent the 10 Commandments.

    This is what I can read: VIIXXIIIIVIIXXIIII
    I don't know were to start the reading of the #s in that string!

    I don't think it's a Covenant ring now that you've identified the symbols. If it were you'd see this pattern:
    IIIIIIIVVIVIIVIIIIXX
