SECRET TO KEEPING YOUR COOL

Temps heading up over 100* in CenTx again. Here's a sneaky sneak preview from
the Badgers' fourthfest dig.

Long as you keep your buns properly chilled, you can happily concentrate on digging !

Re: SECRET TO KEEPING YOUR COOL

definatley a new technique

Re: SECRET TO KEEPING YOUR COOL

You will never pick up another pick once you use a little one!

I LOVE IT!! Been digging with same one for what Hal, 5 years?? Only had to replace the tip 1 time last year

The handle is 16in long.. and the Pick is 7inches .. (Not including the square where the handle goes

You can get and start small holes with it and its rather light.. LOVE IT!

Re: SECRET TO KEEPING YOUR COOL

Hay there

If the pick tip is really long, you can't work in the smaller areas.. What I experence anyway!

THis one is perfect for me.. Maybe its woman size! heh., but I have alot more control with this pick and its light!

I have 2 picks the same size.. One I made all metal,, Hal hates when I dig with it because it PINGS everytime I hit a rock ! heh Make sure you use a wooden handle if you dig with anyone over 70! hehe

Re: SECRET TO KEEPING YOUR COOL

Badger said this pic was absolutly never to go on the website. . . but she now saids that she was taking a break and not even turning the PC on for a long
weekend. She never checks back posts unless they have dirty words in them so she'll never know !

Another cooling system that really works, hand towel dipped in cooler ice water. Pic from last Monday
with thermometer, in sun temps over 100*

Also covers up a bad hair day !
