I went back to my home town this past weekend - saw my brother and going to the church bazaar. Didn't get much of a chance to hunt - Saturday was just too cold and hit a park for about half and hour Sunday and found nothing. But I did celebrate my birthday and saw some friends - the hunting will have to wait.

VETERANS DAY HUNT
I had the day off yesterday to celebrate Veteran's day (Navy vet) and I hit the area where I had my 4 silver day. I did manage to find another 3 silver dimes along with 10 wheat pennies and clad. Not a bad day at all - my new "hot spot". That's 11 silver coins and lots of wheat pennies so far. Hope it keeps on giving.

SUNDAY MORNING HUNT
Hoping not to get skunked again - I went back to the same area - not the same spot as Saturday - seeing if I could keep on the silver roll. No silver but did manage 4 wheat pennies and the usual clad. I'm sure there is silver there - just have to find it. Overall a real good weekend

4 SILVER SATURDAY
After getting skunked last Sunday I made up for it today by finding 4 silver coins, 7 wheat pennies and some clad. I didn't hunt long since I had some things to do with the children. I will have to get back to this spot when I can hunt it longer. I did find some older Jefferson nickels but I'm not going to save them - put them in the change pile. Also found a ring.

SILVER HALLOWEEN - SKUNK SUNDAY
Now with the moist ground I hit a park I've had luck with before. My first coin was a mercury dime then not much after that. I wanted to stay longer but this park is by some woods and gunshots were going off so I thought it best to leave - you never know.
Sunday morning it rained after the rain stopped I hit some woods close to home. I knew finding something was remote and as it turned out - right. Did not find a single thing. I left the woods to nearby park then realized I left my pin pointer in the woods. So back in I went and did find it then decided to call it a day.

THE WEEKEND
I took a trip to a friend's house on Saturday - hunting his yard then a couple of parks. His yard was full of iron but he did manage to find a wheat penny. I had to wait until I hit the park to find my first coin of the day. I couldn't stay long as I had to get back home to get my daughter from college. Just a clad day for me.
Sunday started with rain and I got a late start. I stayed close to home and later met another hunter. He is in a club here in Syracuse and he gave me some info about it. We chatted for a while before getting back to detecting. I left shortly after finding clad and a wheat penny. Wonder what he found???

NOT MUCH TO TALK ABOUT
Not much to write about on my last 3 hunts - starting Columbus day I went on a road trip and hit a park - it had trails but found just clad.
Saturday I did a quick morning hunt as I had to take my son to a college fair. Only hunted about 90 minutes but did manage a couple of wheat pennies and clad.
Sunday I went to my dime trifecta spot - there was snow on the ground and it was very muddy to dig. I found 2 pennies though one was a wheatie. Plus it was cold.
