RAIN

A few storms passed through last night bringing some much needed rain - let's hope it was enough but I don't think it did much of anything.  More rain is forecast for Thursday hopefully an all day rain to soak in the ground.  And the temps won't be as hot so that will be a plus too.

STAYED IN

For the first time I didn't want to get out and hunt.  The ground is just dry, hard and my detector will only go a  few inches down.  We need rain and need it badly.  It's no fun digging and the ground is like powder once you break the surface.  I'm praying for rain the week - let's hope it does.

SATURDAY HUNT YIELDS WHEAT PENNIES

I went for a ride Saturday morning to a place a friend showed me - a lot that used to be a school.  He has had luck finding silver there this was my second attempted - got skunked the first time.  Had some better luck finding 2 wheat pennies and some clad.  The ground is very dry and digging is down right terrible.  My targets weren't very deep - can't wait to get some rain and try it again.
