Hunting called due to rain

It was a rainy and cold day yesterday just one of those days where I wanted to go hunting but if I didn't there's always tomorrow - just a lazy day. Hope this week is better weather wise - today will be a wash out as my son has a ball game plus I'm still on days.  Happy hunting  JB

Back to my favorite school

Well, I went back to my son's old school, no silver but did manage a wheat penny 1952 - plus some clad and the usual junk. I passed my total for wheat penny finds from last year  - 7.   So far I have found 2 silver coins and 4 wheat pennies there. There has to be more - just need to find it. The score yesterday was 2-q, 4-d, 2-n, 4 pennies.  Don't know about getting out today - raining hard so I will have to play the waiting game.  Saw Ron White last night - he was funny and a little more raw in person.

Days

I'm working days this week so getting out to hunt may be slow. Son plays ball tonight so I will have to wait until tomorrow night and see if I can get out.  Happy hunting  JB

Memorial hunt

I started this morning at my son's old school, found nothing old today but did find a lot of clad. Went to the sister-inlaws for lunch then went to another school. Had to quit because of an oncoming storm. Overall today not a bad day, 40 coins and over $5 in change. More quarters than pennies - now that's nice.
