Hobbies: Why do I (you) collect?

Why do I (you) collect?

Written by Tonie Konig

I just got back from repparttar

vet with my cat "Spud". He gave us quite a scare, we went away for a couple of day’s vacation and on our return we found him very listless. He just laid there in one spot and wouldn't eat or drink any water.

I don't know about you but my heart ran cold with images of what could be wrong, why is he so listless, is he just upset with me for leaving him alone for a while or does he have a virus, was he in a fight, was he poisoned and thus it stormed in my mind....

Now we had a very good friend taking care of him and his uncle "Tigger" while we were away so we knew they were in good hands. To make a long story short we rushed him off to repparttar 151153 vet where he was admitted to repparttar 151154 animal hospital and a drip put up.

What was wrong with him - a mystery BUT he is better and that is all that counts........

You are probably wondering why I'm telling you this story....

It is simple, with "Spud" being sick it made me think about how much he means to me and my family and God forbid what it would be like should anything happen to him.

If you would like to see what "Spud" looks like and where he got his name from have a look here: http://www.fine-animal-collectibles.com

An Easier Way To Recover Treasure On The Beach

Written by Dean Novosat

treasure hunters know that repparttar

wet sand at repparttar 151119

edge of

beach is

best place to find valuable treasure. However, repparttar 151122

ocean seems like it always doesn't want to give up this treasure. Inevitably, as soon as we detect a good target, and began to dig repparttar 151123

target,

water rises making it difficult, if not impossible, to recover repparttar 151125

target. Even with repparttar 151126

best scoops available, it is sometimes very difficult and frustrating to try to recover targets at repparttar 151127

edge of

surf.

However, there is a simple tool that anyone can make that will make war recovery easier. simply taken old 5 gal. drywall bucket and cut out repparttar 151129 bottom. also remove repparttar 151130 handle as it is metal and may interfere. String section of rope through repparttar 151131 handle holes so you have an easy way to carry repparttar 151132 bucket. I prefer to carry repparttar 151133 bucket on my belt.
