SILVER IS NICE BUT GOLD IS BETTER



Well we got a break here in central New York with the temperature in the 50's and most of the snow gone, D and I went park to a city park.  D has been doing well with his new coil and has found lots of silver with it.  He found some last week where we both have hunted before and only found wheat pennies.  Again today he found silver but I did upstage him and found my first ever gold ring.  10k  - almost didn't dig it because of all the bottle caps I  was finding but glad I did.  I found some wheat pennies and almost another piece of gold - a medal but 14k gold plated.  Still over all I can't complain - got out in December and found gold.  Nice Christmas gift.

SEASON OVER??

Well this past weekend we got some snow and more on Monday putting a nice few inches on the ground.  It may warm up by weeks end but probably not enough to melt where I can get out.  So this may be it for this year but it was a good year - will be hard to top but always fun to try.
