WORK - MORE WORK AROUND HOUSE

I didn't get a chance to metal detect today - had to go into work and put final touches on the school so the kids can mess it up in a week.  So I decided to caught up on some chores around the house before fall sets in.  Plan on meeting a friend tomorrow and hopefully find some treasure.

SCHOOL YARD HUNT


Hit the local school a couple of days ago after the rain storm we had.  The ground was softer but not quite as moist as I thought it would be.  I was finding coins deeper - but none of them were old - 2 1965 dimes and 2 1964 nickels along with a 1959 - always the wrong coin.  Going back into the 90's tomorrow - can't seem to catch a break with the rain.

CATCHING UP ON THE ODDS AND ENDS

Went golfing with my son this morning so it took my off my road trip for today.  Instead I went to home depot and got a few things I needed to get some work done around the house.  Got close to 90 again today and the ground is back to being dry and hard.  It is supposed to rain tomorrow and be a little cooler.  Before you know it winter will be here so I hope to get my work done.
