SHORT CHRISTMAS HUNT

With the unexpected nice weather and day off I managed to get a quick hunt in the woods.  No silver this time around but did find 4 wheat pennies and a nickel.  Most of the woods still had snow but I found an area where it was ground.   Saturday is supposed to be nice and I may be out again before the cold comes.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

                                            MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HUNTING.

SHORT HUNT SUNDAY - LAST FOR YEAR?

I met up with D and we hit a city park - there was more snow on the ground than we thought but gave it a shot.  All we found was clad.  Both are detectors were going crazy - not sure what was causing the problem but it was difficult to hunt.  So after a couple of hours we decided we had enough.  D is on his way to California - at least he won't have snow - and he will do some gold detecting.   Looks like this was the last hunt for the year. 

MAY BE DONE FOR THE SEASON

 I think the 2014 metal detecting season my be over.  Got hit by a coastal storm and it's dumped about a foot of snow - don't think it will be melting anytime soon so I can call it a good year.   I can be hopeful but not counting on the weather to cooperate.  I will have the total count soon.

SHORT HUNT GETS SILVER

I went back into the woods Sunday for a short hunt - it was cold and managed to find a Rosie and 3 wheat pennies, a nickel and a beat up ring.   Only stayed out for a couple of hours but worth it finding silver.  Got to take advantage of any chance you get now since the snow will be on it's way along with the cold.  Pics are coming

RAIN OUT

Though the temperature wasn't bad - the weather on the other had was not.  Rain all day so no getting out.  Now it's hit and miss about detecting - having no snow on the ground is a big plus - just hoping it stays that way for a while. 

LIGHTNING DOESN'T STRIKE TWICE

I went back to the woods where I had my 4 silver day hoping to find some more.  Well lightning didn't strike twice - I did manage a couple of wheat pennies but that was it.  I didn't hunt long even though the weather was warmer - the snow was wet and heavy and it was hard to sweep since the snow kept sticking to the coil.  I'll go back but went the snow is gone.
