Provari down !

[Stonemull]

So I thought since it was cold,clear and no wind that a bonfire would be a good idea last night. Had an umbrella tree all chopped up for a year should be dry enough and a lot of palm fronds, kept picking up new palm fronds from the long grass next to the driveway, really its paddock .. it has wallabys at times.

Anyway .. at some point the provari has escaped from my inside pocket .. nfi where yet.

tis a sad day, got a speeding fine earlier in the day while on my way to pay a speeding fine .. second and third fines in about 20 years.

heres some vid .. if ya spot it let me know ..
YouTube - ‪Missing provari‬‏

next day ..
YouTube - ‪Provari search daylight‬‏

currently experimenting with search coils for a quick metal detector, not going well.
fuelling whipper snipper .. but fuel lines seem to have fallen to bits.
maybe a rake might be the go..

Oh man! I do hope you find it, and that it still works.

I feel for ya, I lost an ego once while burning a brush pile. I wasn't that worried about the ego, figured I dropped it in the fire. I'd go nutz if I lost my provari though.

found !
I reckon that first video I was standing on it at one point.
I tapped the ground with a rake till I heard a noise, turned out to be an old iced coffee container right next to the fire, but .. sitting right alongside was a dirty looking provari.
woo..

GLAD YOU FOUND IT! that would of sucked 4 sure

yeh its all good, one slight war wound from the rake, a tiny black mark right between the provari logo and the display. Its more like a black blemish than a scratch. I think my provari may have damaged my rake actually, I reckon its rake paint. Rubbed it and rubbed it but it wont come off.
Still get lost in the bush .. gotta expect some scars and now I can pick mine out of a line up.

Just such a... weird post! Enlisting people around the world to search for your ProVari via YouTube video-- one of which was at night. I was actually laughing out loud on the second video when you tell the dog "Find the ProVari." Then laughing at myself for watching both videos.

Glad you found it, though!
